Subject: Proof of concept for Windows Messenger Service
overflow
I compiled the PoC DOS with one small change so that it would accept IP
addresses from the command line instead of recompiling per test. I ran
the dos several times per OS, here are the results I got (none of the
test systems have the KB828035 hotfix applied.)
Windows 2000 Advanced Server SP4:
System Crash:

Windows XP Gold:
No effect
Windows XP SP1:
No effect
Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition (default config):
No effect
Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition (Messenger Service turned on):
No effect
Doesn't look like this one is the silver bullet to catch them all
(*phew*) but it does bring us a bit closer to this hole turning ugly.
