CRITICAL:
Less critical

IMPACT:
DoS

WHERE:
From local network

SOFTWARE:
Remote PC Access Server 2.x

DESCRIPTION:
A vulnerability has been identified in Remote PC Access Server, which
allows malicious users to crash the server.

The problem is that the server can't handle when a client returns
unexpected authentication data.

This has been reported to exist in version 2.2, but it may exist in
earlier and later versions as well.

Secunia recommend that you do not use this kind of software directly
over the Internet. In general these protocol are not very robust. Use
VPN or similar to restrict access to such services from the Internet.
