Two vulnerabilities have been identified in Microsoft Windows, which could be exploited by remote attackers to cause a denial of service or execute arbitrary commands.

The first issue is due to a heap overflow error in the "CRpcIoManagerServer::BuildContext" function of the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) when handling malformed network messages, which could be exploited by remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands or cause the affected service to stop responding.

The second flaw is due to an error in the "MIDL_user_allocate" function of the Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MSDTC) when handling malformed network messages, which could be exploited by remote attackers to cause the affected service to stop responding.
