Network Dynamic Data Exchange (NetDDE) is a Windows service which allows two applications to communicate with each other over a network.
A buffer overflow in the NetDDE service could allow a remote, anonymous attacker to execute arbitrary commands by sending a specially crafted NetDDE message to the vulnerable system.
Disable the NetDDE service or install the patch referenced in Microsoft Security Bulletin 04-031.
