Unchecked Buffer in Windows Shell New
An unchecked buffer exists in one of the functions used by the Windows Shell to extract custom attribute information from audio files. This could allow a malicious user to mount a buffer overrun attack and possibly run the code of their choice on the system.
Flaw in Windows WM_TIMER Message Handling New
A security vulnerability exists in the WM_TIMER message handling in Windows NT, 2000 and XP. The flaw could give an attacker, who had the ability to log onto a system interactively, complete control over the system.
Flaw in SMB Signing New
A flaw in the implementation of Server Message Block (SMB) Signing in Windows 2000 and Windows XP could enable an attacker to silently downgrade the SMB Signing settings on an affected system.
Unchecked Buffer in PPTP Implementation New
A security vulnerability exists in the Windows 2000 and Windows XP implementation of the Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP). By delivering specially malformed PPTP control data to an affected server, an attacker could corrupt kernel memory and cause a denial-of-service.
Windows 2000 Default Permissions Could Allow Trojan Horse Program New
Due to the default permissions used on the Windows 2000 system root folder it could enable an attacker to mount a Trojan horse attack against other users of the same system.
Flaw in Windows XP Help and Support Center New
A security vulnerability is present in the Windows XP version of Help and Support Center which could allow an attacker to delete files on the local system by constructing a web page or sending a HTML e-mail.
Cryptographic Flaw in Remote Desktop Protocol New
Two security vulnerabilities exist in the RDP Protocol which is used by Windows NT and 2000 Terminal Services and Windows XP for Remote Desktop access.
Unchecked Buffer in Windows Network Share Service New
A security vulnerability exists in the Windows network share provider which may lead to a denial-of-service if an attacker sends a specially-crafted packet request.
Unchecked Buffer in Remote Access Service Phonebook New
A security flaw exists in the RAS phonebook implementation where a phonebook value is not properly checked and is susceptible to a buffer overrun. The overrun could be exploited for either of two purposes; causing a system failure or running code on the system with LocalSystem privileges.
Unchecked Buffer in ASP.NET Worker Process New
A security vulnerability exists in the .NET session state management function which could be exploited by mounting a buffer overrun attack. A successful attack could cause the ASP.NET application to restart causing a denial of service, in addition the attacker could potentially run code of their choice on the server.
Authentication Flaw in Windows Debugger New
A security vulnerability in the authentication mechanism for the Windows debugging facility may allow a malicious user to execute the code of their choice in the same security context as a controlled program.
Unchecked buffer in the Multiple UNC Provider New
A security vulnerability exists in the Multiple UNC Provider service which could be exploited to allow an attacker to run the code of their code on the system.
Malformed Data Can Cause Windows SMTP Service to Fail New
A security flaw exists in the Windows 2000 and Windows XP SMTP service that could enable denial of service attacks to be mounted against the server.
