And if the script will panic Windows then you should add 'dos' category.


(I did not follow this RDP stuff so sorry for my dumb questions)

That said, if you have a test that will check/confirm the vulnerability
without the DoS then it will be better to start with it, perhaps a version
check or something else ?

After the patch does something change from the first received bytes before
the check ?

The sole purpose of this script is to test the server in a safe way and
avoid triggering the DoS.
It's already doing what you are suggesting. Just triggering the bug is
trivial.
The way this works follows:
1. send one user request
 - server replies wit user id (let's call it A) and channel for that user
2. send another user request
 - server replies with another user id (let's call it B) and another channel
3. send channel join request with requesting user set to A and requesting
channel set to B
 - this is the actual bug, user A should not be able to get channel of user
B
 - if server replies with success message , we conclude that the server is
vulnerable
 - if we do not get the success message , the server is patched
4. in case the server is vulnerable, send a channel join request with
requesting user set to B and requesting channel set to B to prevent the
chance of BSoD
5. The end
Ok, so you should just add the two vulnerability entries.

This should be clear from the code, but I hope I've cleared things a bit
more.
Thank you for the clarification.


Thank you,
