**Are there any special conditions necessary for this vulnerability to be exploitable?** Yes. This vulnerability is only exploitable if the MaxReceiveBuffer LDAP policy is set to a value higher than the default value. Systems with the default value of this policy would not be vulnerable. For more information, please see LDAP policies.

**What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?** The type of information that could be disclosed if an attacker successfully exploited this vulnerability is the contents of Kernel memory. An attacker could read the contents of Kernel memory from a user mode process.

**What type of information could be disclosed by this vulnerability?** The type of information that could be disclosed if an attacker successfully exploited this vulnerability is unauthorized file system access - reading from the file system.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** An authenticated attacker could send a specially crafted request to a vulnerable LDAP server. Successful exploitation could result in the attacker's code running in the context of the SYSTEM account.

**How could an attacker exploit this vulnerability?** This vulnerability could be exploited over the network by an authenticated normal user through a low complexity attack on a server configured as the domain controller.

**According to the CVSS metric, the attack complexity is high (AC:H). What does that mean for this vulnerability?** Successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires an attacker to win a race condition.
