Description #His technique works fine against Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 and 3 (English). #For this exploit I have tried several strategies to increase reliability and performance: #Jump to a static 'call esp' #Backwards jump to code a known distance from the stack pointer. #The web server does not correctly handle the amount of data or bytes sent. #When authenticating to the web server with a large number of characters for the server to process, the server will crash as soon as it is received and processed, causing Denied of service conditions. #Successful exploitation of these issues allows remote attackers to crash the affected server, denying service to legitimate users. #2.
