MS05-046 - Vulnerability in the Client Service for NetWare Could Allow Remote Code Execution (899589)

This vulnerability only affects Windows systems with CSNW (Client Service for NetWare) or GSNW (Gateway Service for Netware) which is not installed by default on any version of Windows. Given thate there are no reports of this vulnerability being exploited in actual attacks, that there is no proof of concept code public at this time and that CSNW/GSNW is not a core component of Windows it is likely it won't be immediately targeted.

Bottom line: If you have Netware servers and use CSNW consider loading this patch after complete testing in your environment.
