IIS 4.0 and 5.0 does not properly restrict access to certain types of files when their parent folders have less restrictive permissions, which could allow remote attackers to bypass access restrictions to some files, aka the "File Permission Canonicalization" vulnerability.

IIS 5.0 allows remote attackers to obtain source code for .ASP files and other scripts via an HTTP GET request with a "Translate: f" header, aka the "Specialized Header" vulnerability.

IIS 4.0 and 5.0 allows remote attackers to obtain fragments of source code by appending a +.htr to the URL, a variant of the "File Fragment Reading via .HTR" vulnerability.

An administrative script from IIS 3.0, later included in IIS 4.0 and 5.0, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by accessing the script without a particular argument, aka the "Absent Directory Browser Argument" vulnerability.

IIS 4.0 allows remote attackers to obtain the internal IP address of the server via an HTTP 1.0 request for a web page which is protected by basic authentication and has no realm defined.

IIS 4.05 and 5.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a long, complex URL that appears to contain a large number of file extensions, aka the "Malformed Extension Data in URL" vulnerability.

ISM.DLL in IIS 4.0 and 5.0 allows remote attackers to read file contents by requesting the file and appending a large number of encoded spaces (%20) and terminated with a .htr extension, aka the ".HTR File Fragment Reading" or "File Fragment Reading via .HTR" vulnerability.

Microsoft IIS 4.0 and 5.0 with the IISADMPWD virtual directory installed allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via a malformed request to the inetinfo.exe program, aka the "Undelimited .HTR Request" vulnerability.

The shtml.exe program in the FrontPage extensions package of IIS 4.0 and 5.0 allows remote attackers to determine the physical path of HTML, HTM, ASP, and SHTML files by requesting a file that does not exist, which generates an error message that reveals the path.

IIS 4.0 and 5.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending many URLs with a large number of escaped characters, aka the "Myriad Escaped Characters" Vulnerability.

IIS 4.0 and 5.0 does not properly perform ISAPI extension processing if a virtual directory is mapped to a UNC share, which allows remote attackers to read the source code of ASP and other files, aka the "Virtualized UNC Share" vulnerability.

IIS 4.0 allows a remote attacker to obtain the real pathname of the document root by requesting non-existent files with .ida or .idq extensions.

In IIS, an attacker could determine a real path using a request for a non-existent URL that would be interpreted by Perl (perl.exe).
