NOTE: it could be argued that if an attacker already has control over WINS/DNS, then web traffic could already be intercepted by modifying WINS or DNS records, so this would not cross privilege boundaries and would not be a vulnerability. It has also been reported that DHCP is an alternate attack vector." } ] }, "problemtype": { "problemtype_data": [ { "description": [ { "lang": "eng", "value": "n/a" } ] } ] }, "references": { "reference_data": [ { "name": "934864", "refsource": "MSKB", "url": "http://support.microsoft.com/kb/934864" }, { "name": "http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=2517", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "http://isc.sans.org/diary.html?storyid=2517" }, { "name": "[ISN] 20070326 Windows weakness can lead to network traffic hijacks", "refsource": "MLIST", "url": "http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/isn/2007-q1/0418.html" }, { "name": "ADV-2007-1115", "refsource": "VUPEN", "url": "http://www.vupen.com/english/advisories/2007/1115" }, { "name": "win-wpad-information-disclosure(33244)", "refsource": "XF", "url": "https://exchange.xforce.ibmcloud.com/vulnerabilities/33244" }, { "name": "http://news.com.com/Windows+weakness+can+lead+to+network+traffic+hijacks/2100-1002_3-6170229.html", "refsource": "MISC", "url": "http://news.com.com/Windows+weakness+can+lead+to+network+traffic+hijacks/2100-1002_3-6170229.html" } ] } }
