wrshdsp.exe in Denicomp Winsock RSHD/NT 2.21.00 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via (1) in 2.20.00 and earlier, an invalid port number such as a negative number, which causes a connection attempt to that port and all ports below 1024, and (2) in 2.21.00, a port number of 1024.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This is an old denial-of-service flaw in Denicomp Winsock RSHD/NT. A remote attacker could make wrshdsp.exe consume excessive CPU by sending certain invalid port values. The known impact is service or host resource exhaustion, not data theft or remote code execution, based on the provided sources. Exposure appears limited to environments still running Denicomp Winsock RSHD/NT 2.21.00 or earlier, especially if reachable from untrusted networks. The source bundle does not provide CPEs, supported platforms, or deployment prevalence. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item. It becomes more urgent if the software supports a critical system or is reachable from untrusted networks, because the reported impact is remote service disruption. Mitigation focus: Identify any Denicomp Winsock RSHD/NT installations and confirm version numbers.; Remove or disable the service where there is no current business need.; Restrict network access to trusted administrative sources only..
