---Description---
In windows filenames like CON, AUX, PRN, CLOCK$ ,COM* , LPT* [ "*" stands for
1, 2, 3, 4 etc... ] can't be created cauz it's reserved for "System Device
Driver" NAMES by OS itself.
---Exploit---
Well, using simple command "say"
edit COM* [ "*" stands for 1, 2, 3, 4 etc... ]
---<Example>---
c:\> edit COM8 < Here COM8 was actually reserved by my MODEM in my
computer >
type it in CMD prompt or "RUN" etc... Using this Any/EVERY available
communication port's in WINDOWS could be JAMMMED! By using JUST the privileges
of a "GUEST" account.
---Summery---
The exploits have been successfully tried in Windows xp pro. and windows 98. I
assume! It works in all versions of windows. While trying the exploit THE COM*
should not be in use.
