Microsoft Web Services on Devices API Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (973565) affects Windows Vista SP1/SP2 and Windows Server 2008 SP1/SP2, allowing remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending a specially crafted message to the WSD TCP ports 5357 or 5358. The vulnerability is caused by a memory corruption error in the Web Services on Devices API (WSDAPI) when processing a WSD message with malformed headers
