Yes, that version is vulnerable to at least the directory indexing bug.  I 
have encountered the same setup in the field and successfully used the 
vulnerability to get a listing of files in the web root and subdirectories.  
Attached is the script I used, its pretty rough but does the trick. The 
actual securityfocus bid is 1284.  The "exploit" of mine they have listed on 
that BID has a typo and I have been ignored everytime I tried to post a fixed 
version.  I guess Elias was too busy rejecting all the crap that people post 
to bugtraq ;) AFAIK, IBM hasn't release a fix, and the Apache folks fixed it 
a long time ago but still consider thier Win32 version on-production quality.

My query is related to the vulnerabilities associated with the Win32
version of the Apache webserver. Can the vulnerabilites associated with
1.3.12 Win32 version of Apache be used on an IBM HTTP server; or have IBM
modified the Apache source in anyway to protect against these issues?

Just a thought since there don't seem to be any upgrades to later versions
of Apache Win32 from IBM as yet, although version 1.3.14 is planned for the
next release.
