A multi-threaded race condition in the Windows RPC DCOM functionality with the MS03-039 patch installed allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash or reboot) by causing two threads to process the same RPC request, which causes one thread to use memory after it has been freed, a different vulnerability than CVE-2003-0352 (Blaster/Nachi), CVE-2003-0715, and CVE-2003-0528, and as demonstrated by certain exploits against those vulnerabilities.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2003-0813 is a denial-of-service flaw in Windows RPC DCOM after the MS03-039 patch. A remote attacker could trigger a race condition that crashes or reboots the system. The provided sources do not establish current active exploitation or list exact affected versions. Exposure is most likely limited to legacy Windows systems with RPC DCOM functionality and the MS03-039 patch installed. Exact affected platforms are not enumerated in the bundle, so asset validation should rely on Microsoft MS04-012, CERT, and OVAL checks. Prioritize if the organization still operates legacy Windows systems or exposes RPC/DCOM internally or externally. For modern fully patched environments, urgency is likely lower, but legacy systems can face outage risk from remote crashes. Mitigation focus: Review and apply Microsoft MS04-012 guidance for affected systems.; Identify legacy Windows hosts still exposing RPC/DCOM services.; Restrict RPC/DCOM exposure from untrusted networks where operationally possible..
