Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2005-3945 (CCN-23284)

Assigned:2005-11-28
Published:2005-11-28
Updated:2019-04-30
Summary:The SynAttackProtect protection in Microsoft Windows 2003 before SP1 and Windows 2000 before SP4 with Update Roll-up uses a hash of predictable data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a flood of SYN packets that produce identical hash values, which slows down the hash table lookups.
