The Internet Authentication Service (IAS) in Microsoft Windows Vista SP2 and Server 2008 SP2 does not properly validate MS-CHAP v2 Protected Extensible Authentication Protocol (PEAP) authentication requests, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted structures in a malformed request, aka "Internet Authentication Service Memory Corruption Vulnerability."

According to the version number obtained by NTLM the remote host has Windows Server 2008 installed. The host may be vulnerable to a number of vulnerabilities including remote unauthenticated code execution.

The remote Windows host has the following vulnerabilities in the Internet Authentication Service :

  - There is a memory corruption vulnerability in the PEAP     authentication implementation.  A remote, unauthenticated     attacker could exploit this to execute arbitrary code as     SYSTEM.  (CVE-2009-2505)

  - Sending a specially crafted MS-CHAP v2 authentication     request could allow a remote attacker to obtain the     privileges of a specific, authorized user. (CVE-2009-3677)
