descriptionThis module exploits a kernel based overflow when sending abnormal PPTP Control Data packets to Microsoft Windows 2000 SP0-3 and XP SP0-1 based PPTP RAS servers (Remote Access Services). Kernel memory is overwritten resulting in a BSOD. Code execution may be possible however this module is only a DoS.
