The SynAttackProtect protection in Microsoft Windows 2003 before SP1 and Windows 2000 before SP4 with Update Roll-up uses a hash of predictable data, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption) via a flood of SYN packets that produce identical hash values, which slows down the hash table lookups.

Exploit prediction (EPSS)

12.26% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 96% of all scored CVEs.
