DHCP service interruption via uncontrolled resource consumption
Published May 14, 2024 · Updated May 3, 2025
Denial of service in Microsoft Windows Server DHCP Server service allows remote authenticated users to interrupt DHCP service over the network. Microsoft identifies uncontrolled resource consumption but has not disclosed the triggering DHCP message, affected code path, or exhausted resource. Exploitation requires low privileges and no user interaction; the bounded impact is DHCP service interruption without reported data disclosure or modification.
