Pi3Web 2.0.3 before PL2, when installed on Windows as a desktop application and not using the Pi3Web/Conf/Intenet.pi3 configuration, is vulnerable to a denial of service and information disclosure. Remote attackers can send a request to a non-DLL file within the ISAPI directory (e.g., Isapi\users.txt), causing the server to crash or hang due to a failed DLL load. This also results in the disclosure of the full server pathname in the error output.

This repository contains a single Metasploit auxiliary module targeting a denial of service (DoS) vulnerability in the Pi3Web HTTP server (CVE-2008-6938). The exploit works by sending an HTTP request for a non-DLL file (such as users.txt) in the /isapi directory, which causes the server to crash on versions 2.0.13 and earlier. The module is written in Ruby and leverages Metasploit's Remote::HttpClient and Auxiliary::Dos mixins. The only configurable option is the filename to request in the /isapi directory. There are no payloads or post-exploitation features; the sole purpose is to crash the target service. The attack vector is network-based, requiring access to the HTTP service on the target. The endpoint of interest is the /isapi/<FILENAME> path, which is used to trigger the vulnerability.
