Buffer overflow in the Microsoft W3Who ISAPI (w3who.dll) allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long query string.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old remote buffer overflow in Microsoft W3Who ISAPI, w3who.dll. If exposed, a long web query could crash the service and may allow code execution. The source bundle does not identify affected versions, a CVSS score, or a vendor patch. Most likely exposure is legacy IIS environments where w3who.dll is installed and reachable through a public or internal web route. The bundle does not show that W3Who is present by default or list specific supported products. Prioritize this for legacy internet-facing IIS estates. The component is old, likely unnecessary in modern environments, and the reported impact includes service outage and possible code execution. If no W3Who exposure exists, urgency drops substantially. Mitigation focus: Inventory IIS hosts for exposed W3Who ISAPI mappings or w3who.dll files.; Disable or remove W3Who where it is not business-required.; Restrict access to any required W3Who endpoint to trusted networks..
