Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 Gold and SP1 and Microsoft Search Server 2008 do not properly perform authentication and authorization for administrative functions, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (server load), obtain sensitive information, and create scripts that would run in the context of the site via requests to administrative URIs, aka Access Control Vulnerability.
