75% of all web servers running MS IIS 5.0 are vulnerable to exploit
According to a survey compiled by Netcraft, three-quarters of all web
servers running Microsoft's Internet Information Server 5.0 (IIS) have the
WebDAV protocol enabled, making them vulnerable to attack. This is despite
the security alert issued on March 17, 2003 by Microsoft. The survey
scanned over one million Internet servers running IIS, out of a total of
nearly 40 million servers systematically polled each month.
