Buffer overflow in SmartHTML Interpreter (shtml.dll) in Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions (FPSE) 2000 and 2002 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) or run arbitrary code, respectively, via a certain type of web file request.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This old Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions flaw affects the SmartHTML interpreter. A remote web request could make affected FPSE 2000 systems consume CPU or, on FPSE 2002, allow arbitrary code execution. Exposure matters mainly for legacy public web servers still running FPSE. Likely exposure is limited to legacy Microsoft web servers with FrontPage Server Extensions 2000 or 2002 enabled, especially internet-facing sites processing SmartHTML-related requests. The source bundle does not identify specific operating systems, IIS versions, CPEs, or supported product status. Prioritize if any public or business-critical legacy web server still runs FPSE 2000 or 2002. Modern environments without FPSE exposure should treat this as a legacy asset discovery and decommissioning issue rather than an emergency. Mitigation focus: Identify any remaining FPSE 2000 or 2002 deployments.; Review and apply Microsoft MS02-053 guidance for affected systems.; Retire or isolate unsupported legacy FPSE servers where practical..
