    vWebServer v1.2.0 (Others?)
    ----------------------------
    Tested system: vWebServer v1.2.0 running under
    Microsoft Windows 98 (Homepage/Download @
    www.vwebserver.com)
    
    1- ASP file source disclosing:
    
    Adding a unicoded space character at the end of
    requested URL, vWebServer shows the ASP file instead
    of executing it.
    
    Example:
    An example request looks this       
    http://www.TargetHost.com/anything.asp%20
    
    
    
    2- DOS device filename vulnerability:
    
    Under Windows 9x, using any DOS device names (aux,
    con, prn, ...) as a filename or directory crashes
    Windows.
    vWebServer doesn't filter those requests.
    
    Below example crashes both web server and Windows with
    a blue screen of death.
    
    Example:
    http://www.TargetHost.com/aux/aux
    
    
    3- Very long URL vulnerability:
    
    Requesting a very long URL (i tried 8192 bytes long)
    will resulted in Error #5, File error.
    After requesting 2-3 times the same URL, web server
    will no longer response anything. Restart needed.
    
    Example:
    http://www.TargetHost.com/AAAAAAAAA...(Ax8192)...AAA
    
    
    Vendor: Informed and confirmed.
    
    
    SmallHTTP (All versions vulnerable: 2.x Stables,  3.x
    Latest beta 8)
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    Server crashes after sending very long URL a few
    times.
    
    Example:
    
    GET /AAA...AAA (8192) HTTP/1.0
    Accept: ...
    Host: ...
    .
    .
    .
    
    Vendor: Informed and confirmed.
