Microsoft Windows MSDTC Invalid Memory Access Denial Of Service Vulnerability

Microsoft Windows Distributed Transaction Coordinator is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability.

Attackers can exploit this vulnerability remotely to disrupt the MSDTC service and any services that depend on MSDTC.

This vulnerability affects Windows NT and Windows 2000 by default, since the service comes enabled. The vulnerability affects Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 only if the service is manually enabled.
