Category:Web Servers
Title:IIS 5 .printer ISAPI filter applied
Summary:Remote Web server supports Internet Printing Protocol.
Description:Summary:
Remote Web server supports Internet Printing Protocol.

Vulnerability Insight:
IIS 5 has support for the Internet Printing Protocol(IPP), which is
enabled in a default install. The protocol is implemented in IIS5 as an ISAPI extension. At least one
security problem (a buffer overflow) has been found with that extension in the past, so we recommend
you disable it if you do not use this functionality.

Solution:
To unmap the .printer extension:

1.Open Internet Services Manager.

2.Right-click the Web server choose Properties from the context menu.

3.Master Properties

4.Select WWW Service -> Edit -> HomeDirectory -> Configuration

and remove the reference to .printer from the list.
