98Guy Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 This was the huge security issue that MS released an emergency patch for a few days ago:http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/...n/MS08-067.mspxQuestions:To what extent does win-9x utilize (and/or impliment) RPC and might be vulnerable to the exploit being addressed in this bulletin?Is DCOM necessary to be installed/running for RPC's to function on win-9x?Must file and print-sharing be turned on for win-9x to be vulnerable to any RPC (port 135/1027/1028) exploits?Can vulnerable systems be exploited simply by having a non-firewalled internet connection or be being exposed to an infected system on a local lan?

98Guy Posted October 27, 2008 Author Share Posted October 27, 2008 Can nobody here answer the basic question: Does Win-98 implement or use on RPC's the same way as NT-based OS's? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
