Summary:
This event is generated when an attempt is made to access a file with 
Microsoft Frontpage form results.

--

Impact:
If successful, the attacker can read sensitive data users have posted 
via forms within the Frontpage web.

Detailed Information:
On systems running Microsoft Frontpage Extensions on IIS or Apache web 
servers users can insert forms into web pages and have their data saved 
into a text file (/_private/form_results.txt) which can later be read or
emailed to the user. If direct access to the file is possible, the 
attacker may read the sensitive data posted from the form.

Affected Systems:

Attack Scenarios:
An attacker can request the file from its standard location, entering 
the exact URL.

--
