Description:
A security issue has been identified in Windows 2003 Server, which can be exploited to bypass the security mechanism included for detecting and protecting against exploitation of stack based buffer overflows.

The problem is that it is possible to cause stack based buffer overflows without overwriting the canary or cookie placed on the stack to detect possible exploitation.

See the original paper for a detailed description.
