CVE-2005-0550
Buffer overflow in Microsoft Windows 2000, Windows XP SP1 and SP2, and Windows Server 2003 allows local users to cause a denial of service (i.e., system crash) via a malformed request, aka "Object Management Vulnerability".
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (2.07%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
