The issue is related to insufficient input validation in the HTTP.sys driver of the Windows operating system. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.

The issue is related to memory safety bugs, including evidence of memory corruption, which could potentially be exploited to run arbitrary code. It is also described as a buffer overflow vulnerability in memory, allowing a remote attacker to access confidential data, compromise its integrity, and cause a denial of service.

Memory safety bugs were reported, showing evidence of memory corruption. It is presumed that with enough effort, some of these bugs could be exploited to run arbitrary code.

The issue allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service, resulting in a server crash, by sending a small control channel packet. This can lead to disruption of protected information availability. The exploitation can be carried out remotely by an attacker who has passed the authentication procedure.
