Advisory Content (Page 1 of 3)[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ]

Description:
Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Microsoft Windows, which can be exploited by malicious users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service), reveal sensitive information, or impersonate other users.

1) An unspecified error in the handling of special Kerberos messages allows malicious users to cause the domain controller to shutdown.

This vulnerability only affects Microsoft Windows Server 2000 and 2003, which are configured as domain controllers.

2) An unspecified error in the handling of PKINIT transactions, may allow users to impersonate other users by conducting a MITM (Man In The Middle) attack.

This only affects systems using SmartCard authentication.
