SYNTHESIS OF THE VULNERABILITY
An attacker can create a memory leak in the RDP service of
Windows, in order to trigger a denial of service.
Impacted products: Microsoft Windows 2012, Windows 7, Windows 8
Severity: 2/4
Creation date: 10/03/2015
DESCRIPTION OF THE VULNERABILITY
The Windows system uses RDP for remote access.

freed.
An attacker can therefore create a memory leak in the RDP service
of Windows, in order to trigger a denial of service.
