Message | WEB-IIS IISProtect access |
Summary | This event is generated when an attempt is made to access /iisprotect/admin on a host running Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS). |
Impact | An attacker may be able to perform administrative tasks on the server without authorization and may be able to manipulate the database that IISProtect by injecting and executing SQL statements. |
Detailed Information | IISProtect is a third-party application that provides password authentication to directories on IIS using a Web-based interface. An attacker can bypass authentication by requesting a specific file with an encoded URI, and can then proceed to use SQL injection techniques to execute arbitrary code with administrative privileges. |
Affected Systems | Any host using any version of IISProtect below v2.2.0.9 with IIS. |
Attack Scenarios | An attacker can use SQL injection to execute arbitrary code. |
Ease of Attack | Simple. |
Corrective Action | Upgrade to the latest non-affected version of the software. Check the host for signs of compromise. Disallow access to the IISProtect administration site from sources external to the protected network. |
