Security readout for executives and security teams
CVE-2003-0224 is an old Microsoft IIS 5.0 flaw in ssinc.dll. A local user who can place a web page using Server Side Includes could trigger a buffer overflow with an overly long filename and run arbitrary code. Remaining risk is mainly legacy IIS 5.0 systems. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Microsoft IIS 5.0 servers where SSI is enabled and untrusted or lower-privileged users can create or modify SSI-enabled web content. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item. It is serious where IIS 5.0 still exists, but urgency depends on whether SSI and local web-author access remain in use. Mitigation focus: Review Microsoft MS03-018 and apply the vendor-recommended update or successor guidance.; Retire or isolate any remaining IIS 5.0 systems.; Disable SSI where it is not required..
