SYMPTOMS

If you call the GetServerVariable method in the Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server Web filter, you may cause an access violation.

STATUS

MORE INFORMATION

The access violation may occur when you call GetServerVariable to retrieve a value for HTTP_ALL, RAW_HTTP, HTTP_REFFERER, and other variables. GetServerVariable can cause an access violation when it is called in any notifications, unless the filter handles SF_NOTIFY_PREPROC_HEADERS.
