The Microsoft article referenced by ISS states that checking the registry
can give you the MDAC version.  This is a VERY unreliable method.  If you
cannot download the comcheck utility mentioned in the article, check the
version info for the following files:

msdadc.dll
Oledb32.dll

This is still not as reliable as the comcheck utility, but more so than the
registry information.

Here is an ISS knowledge base article on how to check the version of MDAC
running on a machine.

While we are on this subject, I found that Real Secure ships with MDAC 2.6
which is vulnerable to the BO.  Has anybody attempt to upgrade to MDAC to
2.7 on their Workgroup Manager and have it running without problems?

Microsoft Data Access Components contain a buffer overflow that could lead
to code execution in MSIE
and on vulnerable IIS servers.

I wanted to inquire about what version System Scanner is for the MDAC
service.  I know there was an update lately on it, but I don't know where to
check to see what version it is currently at.




Thanks
