Bugtraq: Re: Remote IIS 5.x and IIS 6.0 Server Name Spoof

[3APA3A <3APA3A () SECURITY NNOV RU>]

Dear inge_eivind.henriksen () chello no,

The bug here is not in ability to spoof SERVER_NAME, because SERVER_NAME
is  untrusted  data  from  Host: request header or from proxy-style HTTP
request  (like in case of your example). SERVER_NAME is ALWAYS untrusted
data.  The  bug  here  is  in  the way SERVER_NAME is used in error page
genaration.  So,  you article should be called something like "Microsoft
IIS   error   page  access  validation  weakness".  If  any  script  use
SERVER_NAME in this way, this is vulnerability of the script itself.
