Domain Controller Unauthenticated Network
Something dramatic happens lets say a power cut to the head office.
Domain controller unauthenticated network. Domain server network connections unauthenticated or on public network. This vulnerability allows an unauthenticated attacker with network access to a domain controller to establish a vulnerable netlogon session and eventually gain domain administrator privileges. Some desktops especially those that have are behind a couple switches often have problems confirming that they are on the domain so they come up on the public network which messes up rdp connections.
All domain controllers in the trusting forest must be restarted after these settings are changed for the changes to take effect. Everything on your network is running fine multiple sites multiple vpns multiple domains. The vulnerability affects windows server and could allow an unauthenticated attacker with network access to a domain controller to completely compromise all active directory identity services.
Before doing that is was just saying connect to private network network. Restrictions for unauthenticated rpc clients. We had tried to manually add the domain suffix in th ipv4 parameters.
It s a wired mostly gigabit network. One small client has a server 2012 r2 essentials domain controller and a few windows 7 desktops. Recently we switched nine of those computers over to windows 7.
The vulnerability is especially severe since the only requirement for a successful exploit is the ability to establish a connection with a domain. More information read the following blog about the problems that may result from enabling rpc endpoint mapper client authentication especially on domain controllers.
