Xato Network Security Advisory - FrontPage Server Extensions are vulnerable to a remote denial of service attack that will disable all FrontPage authoring operations on a web site. When requesting a URL that includes a DOS device name, the server extensions will hang and will not service any further requests. To re-enable the server extensions requires restarting IIS or rebooting the server. There is also a secondary problem with certain DOS device names that reveal the server's physical path.
