Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment

Summary :

Frontpage extensions are enabled.

Description :

The remote web server appears to be running with the Frontpage extensions.
Frontpage permits remote web developers and administrators to modify web
content from a remote location. While this is a fairly typical scenario
on an internal Local Area Network, the Frontpage extensions should not
be available to anonymous users via the Internet (or any other untrusted
3rd party network).
