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

Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in Microsoft Windows 2000, which can be exploited by malicious people to compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerability is caused due to a boundary error when parsing RPC requests to the Message Queuing (MSMQ) service. This can be exploited to cause a heap-based buffer overflow by sending a specially crafted RPC request to the affected service.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code with SYSTEM privileges, but requires that the MSMQ service is enabled (not installed by default).
