IPSec in Microsoft Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012 Gold and R2, Windows RT Gold and 8.1, and Windows 10 Gold and 1511 mishandles encryption negotiation, which allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (system hang) via crafted IP traffic, aka "Windows IPSec Denial of Service Vulnerability."

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2015-6111 is a Windows IPSec denial-of-service issue. An authenticated remote user could send crafted IP traffic that causes an affected system to hang. The business risk is service interruption on systems using affected Windows versions, especially where IPSec is enabled or required for connectivity. Exposure is most relevant to affected Windows systems that use IPSec and are reachable by authenticated remote users. Internet-wide unauthenticated exposure is not supported by the provided sources. Treat as a patch-validation and legacy-system exposure issue. It is unlikely to drive emergency response absent affected IPSec-dependent systems, but unpatched critical servers could face availability disruption. Mitigation focus: Review Microsoft MS15-120 guidance for affected systems and update applicability.; Apply the Microsoft security updates associated with MS15-120 where applicable.; Prioritize servers or endpoints using IPSec for business-critical connectivity..
