Base vector

AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Windows 2000 versions prior to SP4

Description: The issue is related to a stack-based buffer overflow in Active Directory, allowing remote attackers to cause a denial of service, potentially leading to a system reboot, and possibly execute arbitrary code. This can be achieved by sending an LDAP version 3 search request with a large number of specific statements, such as AND and OR, which causes the LSASS.EXE process to crash.

Recommendations: For Windows 2000 versions prior to SP4, apply Service Pack 4 to resolve the issue.
