Microsoft IIS 6 parsing directory Vulnerability

#Introduction:
Using this vulnerability you can bypass some Security filters, for example a file with “.jpg” or “.rar” extension can be executed as an asp (Active Server Page)
file.

#Vulnerable:
It just works for asp files and works on Windows 2003 / IIS 6 (As I tested…).
The test failed on IIS 5.1 and IIS 7.

#Description:
1) Create a Folder with '.asp' extension.
2) Insert your ASP code in a file with any extension (like .jpg,.rar,.txt) in the folder you have created.
3) Open the file with your browser and you will see it's executed as an asp file!

#Note:
The Extension of file does not matter at all!

#Solution:
There is no patch to fix this security vulnerability yet, the best thing I can say is to DISABLE ASP FILES FROM YOUR "web server extensions"! Or Remove “execute”
permission from the upload directories.

#PS:
This vulnerability was reported for first time at 2010-06-19 in Persian (http://sebug.net/vulndb/19820/)
