Microsoft flaw puts servers at risk - Tech News - CNET.com - The vulnerability affects the Windows Locator service, software that translates network names into the addresses of actual resources, such as disks and printers, on a company's local area network.

"An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could cause the Locator service to fail, or could cause code of the attacker's choice to be executed with system privileges," the software giant said in the security bulletin. "Customers running Windows NT 4.0 domain controllers or Windows 2000 domain controllers should apply the patch immediately."
