Working Resources BadBlue is a webserver intended to share various resources and is developed for Microsoft Windows environments. Shared files specifically, are served through a library called 'ext.dll'. An issue has been reported in BadBlue which could cause a denial of services. When a user submits a request for a Microsoft Office document, BadBlue creates a process for the request. However, if a request is made for a non-existant file, BadBlue fails to terminate the process. A remote user may submit multiple requests of this type, eventually causing the host to stop responding.
