Sample Script to Verify IIS File Versions for KB973917

Article
12/18/2009

Microsoft recently released an update for Internet Information Services (IIS), as described in the following article:

Description of the update that implements Extended Protection for Authentication in Internet Information Services (IIS)

https://support.microsoft.com/kb/973917

In the Known Issues section, the KB describes a known issue with the update when it is installed on Windows Server 2003 with IIS6. More information about the known issue is also described in the following article:

Internet Information Services 6.0 may not function correctly after installing KB973917

https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2009746/

To mitigate the known issue, server administrators should ensure all of the IIS components are at the Windows Server Service Pack 2 version or later. The KB973917 article lists the component names and the version numbers to check for.

To automate the version checking process, it is possible to write a script that iterates through the IIS components and verifies the version number. The following script is an example of such an automation.

NOTE: The following script is for x86-based systems only and is provided AS-IS with no warranty or support, for sample purposes only.
