The undocumented TRACK method in Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0 returns the content of the original request in the body of the response, which makes it easier for remote attackers to steal cookies and authentication credentials, or bypass the HttpOnly protection mechanism, by using TRACK to read the contents of the HTTP headers that are returned in the response, a technique that is similar to cross-site tracing (XST) using HTTP TRACE.

Security readout for executives and security teams

Microsoft IIS 5.0 includes an undocumented TRACK method that can echo a request back in the response body. If exposed, it can help attackers obtain cookies or authentication headers and weaken HttpOnly protections. The source bundle does not provide CVSS, official affected-product metadata, or patch status. Exposure is most likely on legacy Microsoft IIS 5.0 systems that still accept the undocumented TRACK HTTP method. Modern environments are less likely affected, but inherited or forgotten web servers should be checked. Treat this as a legacy-exposure cleanup item, not an emergency based on current evidence. Prioritize if IIS 5.0 is still reachable from untrusted networks or supports business-critical authentication flows. Mitigation focus: Inventory any remaining Microsoft IIS 5.0 systems.; Check Microsoft, CERT, and vendor guidance for supported remediation.; Block or disable TRACK where vendor-supported controls allow it..
