VAR-200810-0010

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-12-22 22:45

The TCP implementation in (1) Linux, (2) platforms based on BSD Unix, (3) Microsoft Windows, (4) Cisco products, and probably other operating systems allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (connection queue exhaustion) via multiple vectors that manipulate information in the TCP state table, as demonstrated by sockstress. Part of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) specification (RFC 1122) allows a receiver to advertise a zero byte window, instructing the sender to maintain the connection but not send additional TCP payload data. The sender should then probe the receiver to check if the receiver is ready to accept data. Narrow interpretation of this part of the specification can create a denial-of-service vulnerability. By advertising a zero receive window and acknowledging probes, a malicious receiver can cause a sender to consume resources (TCP state, buffers, and application memory), preventing the targeted service or system from handling legitimate connections. Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) Multiple implementations of service disruption (DoS) Vulnerabilities exist. RFC793 It is prescribed by Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) Implementation of service disruption due to misuse of available resources after connection establishment (DoS) Vulnerabilities exist.Service operation disrupted by a remote third party (DoS) There is a possibility of being attacked. The core TCP/IP protocol is prone to multiple remote denial-of-service vulnerabilities. The issues are tracked by Cisco Bug IDs CSCsv04836, CSCsv07712, CSCsv66169, CSCsv02768, CSCsv08325, and CSCsv08579. These issues are reported to affect multiple vendors' implementations of the TCP/IP stack. ----------------------------------------------------------------------

TITLE: Windows 2000 TCP/IP Window Size Denial of Service Vulnerabilities

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID: SA36597

VERIFY ADVISORY: http://secunia.com/advisories/36597/

DESCRIPTION: Two vulnerabilities have been reported in Microsoft Windows 2000, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

1) An error in the TCP/IP processing can be exploited to cause a system to stop responding to new requests by flooding it using specially crafted packets with a TCP receive window size set to a very small value or zero.

2) An error in the TCP/IP processing can be exploited to cause connections to hang indefinitely in a FIN-WAIT-1 or FIN-WAIT-2 state. This can be exploited to cause a system to stop responding to new requests by flooding it using specially crafted packets with a TCP receive window size set to a very small value or zero.

SOLUTION: According to the vendor, no patches will be made available as it would require re-architecting a significant amount of the OS.
