Windows 95/98 UNC Buffer Overflow Vulnerability (1)
source: http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/779/info
There is a overflowable buffer in the networking code for Windows 95 and 98 (all versions). The buffer is in the part of the code that handles filenames. By specifying an exceptionally long filename, an attacker can cause the machine to crash or execute arbitrary code. This vulnerability could be exploited remotely by including a hostile UNC or file:// URL in a web page or HTML email. The attack would occur when the page was loaded in a browser or the email was opened (including opening the email in a preview pane.)
