Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in NeoModus Direct Connect, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) on a vulnerable system.
The vulnerability is caused due to an error when handling multiple requests from the same client. This can be exploited by sending multiple requests to a system, which will cause Direct Connect to crash or consume large amounts of memory.
The vulnerability has been reported in version 1.0 build 9 for Windows. However, other versions may also be affected.
