VectorAV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Hughes Technologies Virtual DNS (VDNS) Server version 1.0
Description: The issue allows a remote attacker to create a denial of service. This can be achieved by connecting to port 6070, sending some data, and then closing the connection.
Recommendations: For version 1.0, consider restricting access to port 6070 to minimize the risk of exploitation. As a temporary workaround, implement firewall rules to limit incoming connections to this port until a patch is available.
