Summary

The Security Account Manager Remote (SAMR) protocol in several Microsoft Windows versions fails to accurately determine the user-lockout state. This shortcoming enables remote attackers to exploit the account lockout policy, facilitating unauthorized access through brute-force methods. This vulnerability poses significant risks as it allows an attacker to bypass essential security measures designed to protect user accounts.
