CVE-1999-1233

Summary

CVE-1999-1233 is a vulnerability affecting Internet Information Services (IIS) version 4.0. This issue arises due to IIS failing to implement proper access restrictions for the initial session request from a user's IP address if that address does not have a registered DNS domain. As a result, unauthorized users with undocumented IP addresses can potentially gain access to the server, posing a significant security risk. This vulnerability, also known as the "Domain Resolution" vulnerability, can lead to unauthorized access and potential data breaches.
