VULHUB ™

Windows 2000 Service Pack 3 can be crashed remotely via TCP port 135 due to a vulnerability in the DCE-RPC stack of Windows 2000 and related OS's. This vulnerability allows anyone who can connect to port 135 TCP to disable the RPC service. Disabling the RPC service causes the machine to stop responding to new RPC requests, disabling almost all functionality. Proof of concept available here.
