Microsoft Windows RRAS Integer Overflow Vulnerability Leading to Remote Code Execution
Vulnerability
An integer overflow vulnerability has been identified in the Routing and Remote Access Service (RRAS) of Microsoft Windows. This vulnerability allows an unauthorized attacker to execute code remotely over the network. The issue arises from an integer overflow or wraparound, which can be exploited by tricking a domain-joined user into sending a request to a malicious server via the RRAS Snap-in. The server could then return harmful data that might enable arbitrary code execution on the user's system.
Impact
Exploitation of this vulnerability could lead to remote code execution on the affected system.
