Wingate denial of service

Vulnerability Assessment Summary Acertains if Wingate is vulnerable to a buffer attack Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote Wingate service can be forced to connect to itself continually until it runs out of buffers. When this happens, the telnet proxy service will be disabled. A possible hacker may block your telnet proxy this way, thus preventing your system from working properly if you need telnet. A possible hacker may also use this flaw to force your systems to use another proxy which may be under the attacker's control. Solution : configure WinGate so that only authorized users can use it.
