SIGRed: A 17 year old bug in Windows DNS server

SIGRed (CVE-2020-1350) was recently discovered by Checkpoint Security and is a vulnerability in Windows Domain Server (DNS) which will allow for anonymous remote code execution (RCE) by sending a malformed DNS response and will allow an attacker to run as SYSTEM. This has been in the Windows DNS Server since Windows Server 2003 and affects even Windows Server 2019 and could easily be turned into a self replicating worm. This has a CVSS score of 10.0 on a 10 point scale, which is the highest rating on the scale. A patch is now available from Microsoft.
