aka the "Specialized Header" vulnerability.

Description

Microsoft IIS contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to view the source code of ASP/ASA scripts. The issue is due to the server not properly handling the "Translate: f" header, used by WebDAV and FrontPage2000. With a specially crafted header, an attacker can force the server to display script source code instead of processing the script normally. This may reveal sensitive information such as internal IP addresses, account names or passwords.
