tag_summary = "Hotfix to fix Unchecked Buffer in PPTP Implementation 
 (Q329834) is not installed.

A security vulnerability results in the Windows 2000 and 
Windows XP implementations because of an unchecked buffer
in a section of code that processes the control data used
to establish, maintain and tear down PPTP connections. By
delivering specially malformed PPTP control data to an
affected server, an attacker could corrupt kernel memory
and cause the system to fail, disrupting any work in progress
on the system. 

Impact of vulnerability: Denial of service
Maximum Severity Rating: Critical 

Recommendation: Administrators should install the patch immediately. 

Affected Software: 

Microsoft Windows 2000 
Microsoft Windows XP 

See
