Discussion

Microsoft Windows DHCP Client Service Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

Microsoft Windows DHCP Client service is prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability because the service fails to properly bounds-check user-supplied input before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer.

This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary machine code with SYSTEM-level privileges on affected computers. This facilitates the complete compromise of affected computers.
