The Windows NAT Driver (aka winnat) service in Microsoft Windows Server 2012 does not properly validate memory addresses during the processing of ICMP packets, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system hang) via crafted packets, aka "Windows NAT Denial of Service 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.
