CVSS v3.1 |
| The Windows NT Client Server Runtime Subsystem (CSRSS) can be subjected to a denial of service when all worker threads are waiting for user input. |
| Denial of service in Windows NT Local Security Authority (LSA) through a malformed LSA request. |
| After an unattended installation of Windows NT 4.0, an installation file could include sensitive information such as the local Administrator password. |
| Buffer overflow in Microsoft Rich Text Format (RTF) reader allows attackers to cause a denial of service via a malformed control word. |
| Microsoft Windows XP with Fast User Switching (FUS) enabled does not remove the "show processes from all users" privilege when the user is removed from the administrator group, which allows that user to view processes of other users. |
| The SynAttackProtect protection in Microsoft Windows 2003 before SP1 and Windows 2000 before SP4 with Update Roll-up uses a hash of predictable data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a flood of SYN packets that produce identical hash values, which slows down the hash table lookups. |
| DataSourceControl in Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP SP2 with Office installed allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a large negative integer argument to the getDataMemberName method of a OWC11.DataSourceControl.11 object, which leads to an integer overflow and a null dereference. |
| Various TCP/IP stacks and network applications allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service by flooding a target host with TCP connection attempts and completing the TCP/IP handshake without maintaining the connection state on the attacker host, aka the "NAPTHA" class of vulnerabilities. NOTE: this candidate may change significantly as the security community discusses the technical nature of NAPTHA and learns more about the affected applications. This candidate is at a higher level of abstraction than is typical for CVE. |
| Windows NT 4.0 SP 6a allows a local user with write access to winnt/system32 to cause a denial of service (crash in lsass.exe) by running the NT4ALL exploit program in 'SPECIAL' mode. |
| Buffer overflow in the ZIP capability for multiple products allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary code via ZIP files containing entries with long filenames, including (1) Microsoft Windows 98 with Plus! Pack, (2) Windows XP, (3) Windows ME, (4) Lotus Notes R4 through R6 (pre-gold), (5) Verity KeyView, and (6) Stuffit Expander before 7.0. |
| A Windows NT administrator account has the default name of Administrator. |
| Remote Desktop in Windows XP SP1 does not verify the "Force shutdown from a remote system" setting, which allows remote attackers to shut down the system by executing TSShutdn.exe. |
| A Windows NT system's registry audit policy does not log an event success or failure for security-critical registry keys. |
| Integer overflow in JsArrayFunctionHeapSort function used by Windows Script Engine for JScript (JScript.dll) on various Windows operating system allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a malicious web page or HTML e-mail that uses a large array index value that enables a heap-based buffer overflow attack. |
| Buffer overflow in SmartHTML Interpreter (shtml.dll) in Microsoft FrontPage Server Extensions (FPSE) 2000 and 2002 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) or run arbitrary code, respectively, via a certain type of web file request. |
| Multiple buffer overflows in libpng 1.2.5 and earlier, as used in multiple products, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via malformed PNG images in which (1) the png_handle_tRNS function does not properly validate the length of transparency chunk (tRNS) data, or the (2) png_handle_sBIT or (3) png_handle_hIST functions do not perform sufficient bounds checking. |
| MSHTML.DLL in Internet Explorer 5.0 allows a remote attacker to paste a file name into the file upload intrinsic control, a variant of "untrusted scripted paste" as described in MS:MS98-013. |
| Buffer overflow in Windows Explorer (explorer.exe) on Windows XP and 2003 allows user-assisted attackers to cause a denial of service (repeated crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a .url file with an InternetShortcut tag containing a long URL and a large number of "file:" specifiers. |
| NOTE: this issue has been disputed by third parties. Microsoft Windows XP, 2000, and 2003 allows local users to kill a writable process by using the CreateRemoteThread function with certain arguments on a process that has been opened using the OpenProcess function, possibly involving an invalid address for the start routine. NOTE: followup posts have disputed this issue, saying that if a user already has privileges to write to a process, then other functions could be called or the process could be terminated using PROCESS_TERMINATE |
| Remote attackers can perform a denial of service in Windows machines using malicious ARP packets, forcing a message box display for each packet or filling up log files. |
