| Detailed Description |
The Hotfix (MS09-039, 969883) for 'WINS Could Allow Remote Code Execution Vulnerabilities' has not been applied. This update resolves several newly discovered, privately reported and public vulnerabilities.
The remote host has a Windows WINS server installed.
The remote version of this server is vulnerable to two vulnerabilities which may allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code on the remote system:
- One heap overflow vulnerability can be exploited by any attacker
- One integer overflow vulnerability can be exploited by a WINS replication partner.
An attacker may use these flaws to execute arbitrary code on the remote system with SYSTEM privileges.
* Note: This check requires an account with administrative privileges which can log into the host to scan. Absence of these condition will result in the check not being performed and a False Negative for all vulnerable hosts.

Microsoft Windows Server 2003 SP2
