The DNS implementation in smtpsvc.dll before 6.0.2600.5949 in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4 and earlier, Windows XP SP3 and earlier, Windows Server 2003 SP2 and earlier, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and earlier, Windows Server 2008 R2, Exchange Server 2003 SP3 and earlier, Exchange Server 2007 SP2 and earlier, and Exchange Server 2010 uses predictable transaction IDs that are formed by incrementing a previous ID by 1, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof DNS responses, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-0024 and CVE-2010-0025.

The DNS implementation in smtpsvc.dll before 6.0.2600.5949 in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4 and earlier, Windows XP SP3 and earlier, Windows Server 2003 SP2 and earlier, Windows Server 2008 SP2 and earlier, Windows Server 2008 R2, Exchange Server 2003 SP3 and earlier, Exchange Server 2007 SP2 and earlier, and Exchange Server 2010 does not verify that transaction IDs of responses match transaction IDs of queries, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof DNS responses, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-0024 and CVE-2010-0025.

Microsoft JScript 5.1, 5.5, and 5.6 on Windows 2000 SP4, and 5.6 on Windows XP, Server 2003, Windows 98 and Windows Me, will "release objects early" in certain cases, which results in memory corruption and allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code.

Buffer overflow in the TCP/IP Protocol driver in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP1 and SP2, and Server 2003 SP1 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unknown vectors related to IP source routing.

Buffer overflow in the Remote Access Connection Manager service (RASMAN) service in Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4, XP SP1 and SP2, and Server 2003 SP1 and earlier allows remote unauthenticated or authenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code via certain crafted "RPC related requests," that lead to registry corruption and stack corruption, aka the "RASMAN Registry Corruption Vulnerability."

Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) for Windows NT 4.0, 2000 SP4, XP SP1 and SP2, and Server 2003 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a BuildContextW request with a large (1) UuidString or (2) GuidIn of a certain length, which causes an out-of-range memory access, aka the MSDTC Denial of Service Vulnerability. NOTE: this is a variant of CVE-2005-2119.

The thread termination routine in the kernel for Windows NT 4.0 and 2000 (NTOSKRNL.EXE) allows local users to modify kernel memory and execution flow via steps in which a terminating thread causes Asynchronous Procedure Call (APC) entries to free the wrong data, aka the "Windows Kernel Vulnerability."

DISPUTED NOTE: this issue has been disputed by third parties. Microsoft Windows XP, 2000, and 2003 allows local users to kill a writable process by using the CreateRemoteThread function with certain arguments on a process that has been opened using the OpenProcess function, possibly involving an invalid address for the start routine. NOTE: followup posts have disputed this issue, saying that if a user already has privileges to write to a process, then other functions could be called or the process could be terminated using PROCESSTERMINATE.

The SynAttackProtect protection in Microsoft Windows 2003 before SP1 and Windows 2000 before SP4 with Update Roll-up uses a hash of predictable data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a flood of SYN packets that produce identical hash values, which slows down the hash table lookups.
