Interactions between the CIFS Browser Protocol and NetBIOS as implemented in Microsoft Windows 95, 98, NT, and 2000 allow remote attackers to modify dynamic NetBIOS name cache entries via a spoofed Browse Frame Request in a unicast or UDP broadcast datagram.

The NetBIOS Name Server (NBNS) protocol does not perform authentication, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending a spoofed Name Conflict or Name Release datagram, aka the "NetBIOS Name Server Protocol Spoofing" vulnerability.

The registry entry for the Windows Shell executable (Explorer.exe) in Windows NT and Windows 2000 uses a relative path name, which allows local users to execute arbitrary commands by inserting a Trojan Horse named Explorer.exe into the %Systemdrive% directory, aka the "Relative Shell Path" vulnerability.

A Windows NT administrator account has the default name of Administrator.

Windows 2000 Server allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending a continuous stream of binary zeros to various TCP and UDP ports, which significantly increases the CPU utilization.

Windows 2000 Telnet Server allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending a continuous stream of binary zeros, which causes the server to crash.

Windows 2000 allows a local user process to access another user's desktop within the same windows station, aka the "Desktop Separation" vulnerability.

Windows NT and Windows 2000 hosts allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service via malformed DCE/RPC SMBwriteX requests that contain an invalid data length.

A system does not present an appropriate legal message or warning to a user who is accessing it.

The Protected Store in Windows 2000 does not properly select the strongest encryption when available, which causes it to use a default of 40-bit encryption instead of 56-bit DES encryption, aka the "Protected Store Key Length" vulnerability.

The CIFS Computer Browser service allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by sending a ResetBrowser frame to the Master Browser, aka the "ResetBrowser Frame" vulnerability.

Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows NT 4.0, and Terminal Server systems allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service by sending a large number of identical fragmented IP packets, aka jolt2 or the "IP Fragment Reassembly" vulnerability.

NTMail 5.x allows network users to bypass the NTMail proxy restrictions by redirecting their requests to NTMail's web configuration server.

The default configuration of SYSKEY in Windows 2000 stores the startup key in the registry, which could allow an attacker tor ecover it and use it to decrypt Encrypted File System (EFS) data.

The Windows 2000 domain controller allows a malicious user to modify Active Directory information by modifying an unprotected attribute, aka the "Mixed Object Access" 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 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.

The unattended installation of Windows 2000 with the OEMPreinstall option sets insecure permissions for the All Users and Default Users directories.

Microsoft TCP/IP Printing Services, aka Print Services for Unix, allows an attacker to cause a denial of service via a malformed TCP/IP print request.

The installation for Windows 2000 does not activate the Administrator password until the system has rebooted, which allows remote attackers to connect to the ADMIN$ share without a password until the reboot occurs.
