Windows Media Services contains a flaw that may allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. The issue is due to a flaw in the ISAPI (Internet Services Application Programming Interface) extension handling of incoming client requests in the nsiislog.dll file of the Internet Information Services (IIS). With a specially crafted request, an attacker may create a denial of service or exexcute arbitrary code via a chunked encoding overflow.
