The Windows Media Device Manager (WMDM) Service in Microsoft Windows Media Player 7.1 on Windows 2000 systems allows local users to obtain LocalSystem rights via a program that calls the WMDM service to connect to an invalid local storage device, aka "Privilege Elevation through Windows Media Device Manager Service".

The Windows Media Active Playlist in Microsoft Windows Media Player 7.1 stores information in a well known location on the local file system, allowing attackers to execute HTML scripts in the Local Computer zone, aka "Media Playback Script Invocation".

fasttrack p2p, as used in (1) KaZaA before 1.5, (2) grokster, and (3) morpheus allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory exhaustion) via a series of client-to-client messages, which pops up new windows per message.

Windows Media Player (WMP) 8.00.00.4477, and possibly other versions, automatically detects and executes .wmf and other content, even when the file's extension or content type does not specify .wmf, which could make it easier for attackers to conduct unauthorized activities via Trojan horse files containing .wmf content.

smss.exe debugging subsystem in Windows NT and Windows 2000 does not properly authenticate programs that connect to other programs, which allows local users to gain administrator or SYSTEM privileges by duplicating a handle to a privileged process, as demonstrated by DebPloit.

ColdFusion 5.0 and earlier on Windows systems allows remote attackers to determine the absolute pathname of .cfm or .dbm files via an HTTP request that contains an MS-DOS device name such as NUL, which leaks the pathname in an error message.

LANMAN service on Microsoft Windows 2000 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU/memory exhaustion) via a stream of malformed data to microsoft-ds port 445.

Windows XP with port 445 open allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a flood of TCP SYN packets containing possibly malformed data.

Outlook Express 5.5 and 6.0 on Windows treats a carriage return ("CR") in a message header as if it were a valid carriage return/line feed combination (CR/LF), which could allow remote attackers to bypass virus protection and or other filtering mechanisms via a mail message with headers that only contain the CR, which causes Outlook to create separate headers.

PHP for Windows, when installed on Apache 2.0.28 beta as a standalone CGI module, allows remote attackers to obtain the physical path of the php.exe via a request with malformed arguments such as /123, which leaks the pathname in the error message.

Cyberstop Web Server for Windows 0.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via an HTTP request for an MS-DOS device name.

Cyberstop Web Server for Windows 0.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long HTTP GET request, possibly triggering a buffer overflow.

PGP Security PGPfire 7.1 for Windows alters the system's TCP/IP stack and modifies packets in ICMP error messages in a way that allows remote attackers to determine that the system is running PGPfire.

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.

Funk Software Proxy Host 3.x uses weak encryption for the Proxy Host password, which allows local users to gain privileges by recovering the passwords from the PHOST.INI file or the Windows registry.

Format string vulnerability in the administration function in Cisco Secure Access Control Server (ACS) for Windows, 2.6.x and earlier and 3.x through 3.01 (build 40), allows remote attackers to crash the CSADMIN module only (denial of service of administration function) or execute arbitrary code via format strings in the URL to port 2002.

The administration function in Cisco Secure Access Control Server (ACS) for Windows, 2.6.x and earlier and 3.x through 3.01 (build 40), allows remote attackers to read HTML, Java class, and image files outside the web root via a ..\.. (modified ..) in the URL to port 2002.

Windows 2000 allows local users to prevent the application of new group policy settings by opening Group Policy files with exclusive-read access.

Buffer overflow in Multiple UNC Provider (MUP) in Microsoft Windows operating systems allows local users to cause a denial of service or possibly gain SYSTEM privileges via a long UNC request.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 on Windows 98 allows remote web pages to cause a denial of service (hang) via extremely long values for form fields such as INPUT and TEXTAREA, which can be automatically filled via Javascript.
