Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0 uses relative paths when locating system files that are loaded and executed in-process. A local attacker can exploit the resulting untrusted search path by placing a Trojanized replacement file in a location searched before the intended system location, causing IIS to load attacker-controlled code.
