eEye SecureIIS versions 1.0.3 and earlier does not perform length checking on individual HTTP headers, which allows a remote attacker to send arbitrary length strings to IIS, contrary to an advertised feature of SecureIIS versions 1.0.3 and earlier.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is a legacy issue in eEye SecureIIS 1.0.3 and earlier. The product was supposed to limit oversized HTTP headers, but did not check individual header lengths, allowing remote clients to pass arbitrary-length header strings to IIS. Exposure is likely limited to obsolete IIS environments still running eEye SecureIIS 1.0.3 or earlier. Organizations with no legacy SecureIIS deployment are not affected based on the supplied sources. Treat this as a legacy exposure discovery item, not an emergency unless affected internet-facing IIS systems exist. Business urgency depends on whether SecureIIS 1.0.3 or earlier remains deployed. Mitigation focus: Inventory IIS servers for eEye SecureIIS installations and versions.; Prioritize removal or vendor-supported upgrade of SecureIIS 1.0.3 or earlier.; Check archived vendor or support guidance before selecting a fix..
