On IIS PROPFIND will only be of use if 1) Directory listings are enabled and
2) a default page exists - e.g. default.asp

If you request the directory with a GET request - e.g.
GET /foo  HTTP/1.0
you'll get the default.asp page and not a directory listing - even though
listings are allowed. So to get the directory listing you can fall back on
PROPFIND. But the catch here is that directory listings are disabled by
default.

You can always try the SEARCH request method on IIS. Problem is the Index
Server service needs to be started. It is not by default - it's set to
'mamual'.

Hi,

I was using WebInspect and found Web DAV Support enabled.
It's execution part suggests following to exploit:

Issue the following request to the server:
PROPFIND / HTTP/1.0
Host:
Content-Length: 0
I can't understood, how to use these commands to exploit this
vulnerability.

IIS was not showing any log after running WebInspect.
I think the directory for this is c:\winnt\system32\logfiles
