CVSS v3.1 |
| The default configuration for the domain name resolver for Microsoft Windows 98, NT 4.0, 2000, and XP sets the QueryIpMatching parameter to 0, which causes Windows to accept DNS updates from hosts that it did not query, which allows remote attackers to poison the DNS cache. |
| A later variation on the Teardrop IP denial of service attack, a.k.a. Teardrop-2. |
| Windows NT 4.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a malformed SMB logon request in which the actual data size does not match the specified size. |
| Buffer overflow in War FTP allows remote execution of commands. |
| NETBIOS share information may be published through SNMP registry keys in NT. |
| A Windows NT user has inappropriate rights or privileges, e.g. Act as System, Add Workstation, Backup, Change System Time, Create Pagefile, Create Permanent Object, Create Token Name, Debug, Generate Security Audit, Increase Priority, Increase Quota, Load Driver, Lock Memory, Profile Single Process, Remote Shutdown, Replace Process Token, Restore, System Environment, Take Ownership, or Unsolicited Input. |
| A Windows NT system's registry audit policy does not log an event success or failure for security-critical registry keys. |
| A Windows NT account policy has inappropriate, security-critical settings for lockout, e.g. lockout duration, lockout after bad logon attempts, etc. |
| Buffer overflow in the HTML library used by Internet Explorer, Outlook Express, and Windows Explorer via the res: local resource protocol. |
| The Windows NT RPC service allows remote attackers to conduct a denial of service using spoofed malformed RPC packets which generate an error message that is sent to the spoofed host, potentially setting up a loop, aka Snork. |
| The Windows help system can allow a local user to execute commands as another user by editing a table of contents metafile with a .CNT extension and modifying the topic action to include the commands to be executed when the .hlp file is accessed. |
| Windows 95 uses weak encryption for the password list (.pwl) file used when password caching is enabled, which allows local users to gain privileges by decrypting the passwords. |
| Netbt.sys in Windows NT 4.0 allows remote malicious DNS servers to cause a denial of service (crash) by returning 0.0.0.0 as the IP address for a DNS host name lookup. |
| When the Ntconfig.pol file is used on a server whose name is longer than 13 characters, Windows NT does not properly enforce policies for global groups, which could allow users to bypass restrictions that were intended by those policies. |
| The document processing application used by the Windows Shell in Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by modifying the CLSID stored in a file so that it is processed by HTML Application Host (MSHTA), as demonstrated using a Microsoft Word document. |
| Buffer overflow in the SHGetPathFromIDList function of the Serv-U FTP server allows attackers to cause a denial of service by performing a LIST command on a malformed .lnk file. |
| The networking software in Windows 95 and Windows 98 allows remote attackers to execute commands via a long file name string, aka the "File Access URL" vulnerability. |
| Buffer overflow in Microsoft command processor (CMD.EXE) for Windows NT and Windows 2000 allows a local user to cause a denial of service via a long environment variable, aka the "Malformed Environment Variable" vulnerability. |
| The CIFS Computer Browser service on Windows NT 4.0 allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service by sending a large number of host announcement requests to the master browse tables, aka the "HostAnnouncement Flooding" or "HostAnnouncement Frame" vulnerability. |
| Microsoft Windows XP Pro SP2 and Windows 2000 Server SP4 running Active Directory allow local users to bypass group policies that restrict access to hidden drives by using the browse feature in Office 10 applications such as Word or Excel, or using a flash drive. NOTE: this issue has been disputed in a followup post. |
