Computer leaks nonpaged pool memory when IPSEC traffic is configured to use AuthIP without encryption in Windows


View products that this article applies to.

Symptoms

Assume that a Windows-based computer is configured by using a specific IP Security (IPsec) rule (AuthNoEncap - AuthIP with NULL Encryption). When the computer receives User Datagram Protocol (UDP) traffic, a nonpaged pool leak occurs. If there is a large volume of traffic, the computer may become unresponsive.

For example, you may encounter this issue in the following scenario:
  • You configure the computers in a domain to use Authenticated IP (AuthIP) only for IPsec and without encryption.
  • In the domain, a computer sends a large volume of UDP traffic to a remote computer.
In this scenario, nonpaged pool memory usage increases on the remote computer. High UDP network traffic can completely exhaust the nonpaged pool memory. This causes the remote computer to become unresponsive until it is restarted.

Note Windows-based computers that host the DNS Server role are an example of a workload susceptible to this memory leak, because they service UDP-formatted DNS queries from a large collection of unique clients. However, the issue can apply to any remote computer that receives sufficient UDP traffic.
