A vulnerability in Microsoft SharePoint Server could allow a remote attacker to make the server unavailable.
The vulnerability is a result of the dependency SharePoint has in Microsoft.Data.OData library which was
vulnerable to remote DOS (See CVE-2018-8269). The exploit is done by sending a crafted request that contains
an OData filter that triggers the vulnerability in Microsoft.Data.OData library. Sending such request, will
terminate the process that runs the server. By default, SharePoint server is configured to recover a
terminated process, but it will do so only 10 times. If more than 10 malicious requests are sent in 5
minutes interval, the server will not recover and will be down until it is manually restarted.
