Unauthenticated service interruption via resource exhaustion
Published Oct 8, 2024 · Updated Aug 19, 2026
Denial of service in Microsoft Windows iSCSI allows remote attackers to interrupt storage service through unauthenticated network traffic. Microsoft identifies uncontrolled resource consumption but has not disclosed the iSCSI processing locus or the operation that fails to bound attacker-controlled work. No user interaction is required; successful exploitation interrupts service, while the specific failure mode remains undisclosed.
