Summary

In Microsoft Windows NT and Windows 2000, a trusting domain that receives authorization information from a trusted domain does not verify that the trusted domain is authoritative for all listed SIDs. This allows remote attackers to gain Domain Administrator privileges on the trusting domain by injecting SIDs from untrusted domains into the authorization data.

Risk Assessment

Attackers can gain unauthorized access to resources in the trusting domain, potentially leading to serious security breaches and loss of control over the system.

Recommendation

It is recommended to update systems to the latest versions and implement appropriate SID verification mechanisms in the authorization process.
