Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) Practice Question

During an external penetration test you send an HTTP OPTIONS request to a company's IIS 10 web server. The header shows: Allow: GET, HEAD, OPTIONS, PUT, DELETE, PROPFIND, MKCOL. Further tests confirm WebDAV is enabled and no authentication protects these verbs. According to standard web-server attack workflow, which exploitation step should you try next?

  • Upload a malicious .aspx web shell through the WebDAV PUT method and invoke it to gain code execution on the server.

  • Request an AXFR transfer from the organization's name server to enumerate internal DNS records.

  • Exploit the Shellshock Bash vulnerability in any CGI scripts hosted on the server.

  • Attempt SQL injection against the user authentication form on the site's homepage.
