>
> The HTTP TRACE method is normally used to return the full HTTP request back
> to the requesting client for proxy-debugging purposes. An attacker can create
> a webpage using XMLHTTP, ActiveX, or XMLDOM to cause a client to issue a
> TRACE request and capture the client's cookies. This effectively results in a
> Cross-Site Scripting attack.
> We should disable the HTTP TRACE method from the Web Server.
