Description:

IIS 5.0 allows viewing most types of CGI files if a special request is
performed.

Details:
The following URL:
----------------------------------------
http://TARGETIIS/scripts/test.pl%3F+.htr
----------------------------------------
reveals the content of /scrips/test.pl instead of executing it.
This may giveway passwords in CGI and other stuff.
If you are not patched the following may work (not discovered by me):
http://TARGETIIS/scripts/test.pl+.htr
This does not work for some types of .ASP if they contain certain
characters.
