CVSS v3.1 |
| Various TCP/IP stacks and network applications allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service by flooding a target host with TCP connection attempts and completing the TCP/IP handshake without maintaining the connection state on the attacker host, aka the "NAPTHA" class of vulnerabilities. NOTE: this candidate may change significantly as the security community discusses the technical nature of NAPTHA and learns more about the affected applications. This candidate is at a higher level of abstraction than is typical for CVE. |
| Microsoft Virtual Machine (VM) build 5.0.3805 and earlier allows remote attackers to determine a local user's username via a Java applet that accesses the user.dir system property, aka "User.dir Exposure Vulnerability." |
| Land IP denial of service. |
| A NETBIOS/SMB share password is the default, null, or missing. |
| Bonk variation of teardrop IP fragmentation denial of service. |
| TCP/IP implementation in Microsoft Windows 95, Windows NT 4.0, and possibly others, allows remote attackers to reset connections by forcing a reset (RST) via a PSH ACK or other means, obtaining the target's last sequence number from the resulting packet, then spoofing a reset to the target. |
| A legacy credential caching mechanism used in Windows 95 and Windows 98 systems allows attackers to read plaintext network passwords. |
| A NETBIOS/SMB share password is guessable. |
| A remote attacker can disable the virus warning mechanism in Microsoft Excel 97. |
| DHCP clients with ICMP Router Discovery Protocol (IRDP) enabled allow remote attackers to modify their default routes. |
| Multihomed Windows systems allow a remote attacker to bypass IP source routing restrictions via a malformed packet with IP options, aka the "Spoofed Route Pointer" vulnerability. |
| Windows 95, when Remote Administration and File Sharing for NetWare Networks is enabled, creates a share (C$) when an administrator logs in remotely, which allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files by mapping the network drive. |
| Windows 95 and Windows 98 systems, when configured with multiple TCP/IP stacks bound to the same MAC address, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (traffic amplification) via a certain ICMP echo (ping) packet, which causes all stacks to send a ping response, aka TCP Chorusing. |
| Microsoft Windows 9x operating systems allow an attacker to cause a denial of service via a pathname that includes file device names, aka the "DOS Device in Path Name" vulnerability. |
| Windows 95 and Windows 98 do not properly process spoofed ARP packets, which allows remote attackers to overwrite static entries in the cache table. |
| NETBIOS client in Windows 95 and Windows 98 allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service by changing a file sharing service to return an unknown driver type, which causes the client to crash. |
| Remote attackers can perform a denial of service in Windows machines using malicious ARP packets, forcing a message box display for each packet or filling up log files. |
