VAR-200205-0126

Vulnerability from variot - Updated: 2025-04-03 22:22

The MSDTC (Microsoft Distributed Transaction Service Coordinator) for Microsoft Windows 2000, Microsoft IIS 5.0 and SQL Server 6.5 through SQL 2000 0.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash or hang) via malformed (random) input. It is installed by default on Windows 2000, as well as with Microsoft SQL Server 6.5 and higher. It has been reported that it is possible to cause this service to crash by sending 1024 bytes of random data to its listening port, by default port 3372. Restarting the service will reportedly allow it to resume normal operation. The existence of this vulnerability has not been confirmed by Microsoft. * Further reports indicate that sending approximately 20200 null bytes to the service, will cause the entire system to become unresponsive

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.
