It's just noting that WebDAV support is enabled on the webserver. The
"Execution" report data just explains how to confirm that WebDAV is
functioning. If you recieve an XML response, the check is functioning
correctly (I've just double checked it and it certaintly should be). For
more information on how to use WebDAV, see RFC 2518
(http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2518.txt).

If you're SmartUpdated to the latest vuln signatures that should be listed
as an information-level issue. It is not a "serious" security issue that
can be used to hack the server per se. Look at the high- and critical-level
vulnerabilities for issues that can be used to gain access to sensitive
information, execute commands, etc.

By the way, if you have any more questions about WebInspect scan results,
don't do anything crazy like email support@spidynamics.com instead of the
pen-test mailing list.

Do you know the base address of the Global Offset Table (GOT) on a Solaris 8
box?
CORE IMPACT does.
