  and send it over the context of IIS Webserver where WebDAV is enabled. As a
  result due to lack of security implementation check it will let the user fetch
  password protected directories without any valid authentications.");

  for Microsoft IIS Server which fails to decode the requested URL properly.
  Unicode character checks are being done after IIS Server internal security
  check, which lets the attacker execute any crafted UNICODE character in the
  HTTP requests to get information on any password protected directories without
  any authentication schema.");
