MS07-065 - The case of the significant suffix
Thursday, December 27, 2007
MS07-065 fixed a vulnerability in the Message Queueing service. On Windows 2000, a remote anonymous attacker could use this vulnerability to run code as local system on unpatched machines. Windows XP added defense-in-depth hardening to disallow remote access for this service that does not need to be exposed remotely. So on Windows XP, the attacker must be logged on locally on the box.
