| Vetor | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Windows versions 98, 98SE, ME, and XP
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service. This can be achieved through a spoofed SSDP advertisement that causes the client to connect to a service on another machine generating a large amount of traffic, or via a spoofed SSDP announcement to broadcast or multicast addresses, potentially causing all clients to send traffic to a single target system.
Recommendations
For Windows 98, 98SE, ME, and XP, consider disabling the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) service to prevent exploitation until a fix is available. Restrict access to SSDP announcements and advertisements to minimize the risk of denial of service attacks.
