    I'd point out to the customer that there are ways to brute-force the
    username and password. If someone were to find a legitimate username
    and password by brute-force, then they could exploit whatever holes
    his IIS installation has - Unicode or otherwise.
    
    (You'll find a HTTP-Auth brute-forcer program called ObiWaN at
    http://www.phenoelit.de/obiwan/)

    Subject: IIS/Unicode and authentication box
    
    
    
    
    I am trying to show to a customer that his IIS server is vulnerable 
    to unicode exploits.  However, access to his server is password
    protected
    (Require valid-user) I get "HTTP/1.1 401 Access Denied" and 
    "You are not authorized to view this page".
    
    As far as I am concerned, having password box does mean he does
    not have to patch his web server. How can I show that his box
    is vulnerable? Anybody?
