    hey guys, i'm a noob and i'm confused about this command script written as a netcat command script. can someone translate this script?? i mean what each part is for.

    for example, the script is:

    C:TMP/NC/nc -v -n ristbook 80
    ristbook [128.1.71.103] 80 http (open)
    get http://ristbook/scripts/..%255c../wi....exe?/c+dir+c:

    I understand that netcat is logged in to ristbook port 80, but what does the command script mean?? (after ristbook [128.1.71.103] 80 http (open))

    You're using the HTTP protocol (GET) to abuse the double decode bug in IIS. It's the same bug Nimda tries to abuse.. It's about 6 years old.. Shouldn't work anymore...

    RFC 2616 HTTP 1.1
    Aggressive Propagation of Nimda Worm
    MS00-078

    uh... can't grasp anything for a layman like me... so by using the command *get* then http means i activated a bug (?) that gives me information about the structure of the http i'm looking at?? cool...

    oh ya btw can you give me some more info about what other command i can give on an http port?

    Then why are you trying to exploit something? Learn the basics first..

    Not quite my friend... You're GETting something from a webserver.. The bug (MS00-078) is in the way IIS handles the %255c.. Which results in an ability to break out of the webroot..

    Read RFC-2616...
