CVE-2006-0034

33
FAUCET Score

CVE-2006-0034 describes a heap-based buffer overflow in the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) affecting Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows 2003 Server. This vulnerability, with a CVSS score of 7.5, allows unauthenticated remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by sending a specially crafted request to the MSDTC service. While the vulnerability is critical due to its remote code execution potential and low attack complexity, there is no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion. Despite its age and lack of current exploit intelligence, its high FAUCET Risk Score indicates a potentially severe impact if exploited.
