CVE-2008-1446

51
FAUCET Score

CVE-2008-1446 describes an integer overflow vulnerability in the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) ISAPI extension within Microsoft IIS versions 5.0 through 7.0, affecting Windows 2000, XP, and Server 2003/2008. This critical flaw allows remote authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code by crafting an HTTP POST request that forces an outbound IPP connection. With a CVSS score of 9.0 and a FAUCET Risk Score of 98/100, this vulnerability poses a severe risk due to its network-based attack vector, low attack complexity, and complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While no active exploitation, public exploit code (Metasploit, Nuclei, ExploitDB), or significant community discussion has been identified, its high severity warrants attention.
