The Distributed File System (DFS) implementation in Microsoft Windows XP SP2 and SP3 and Server 2003 SP2 does not properly validate fields in DFS responses, which allows remote DFS servers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted response, aka "DFS Memory Corruption Vulnerability."
The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.
