I went to this webpage: Ancillary Function Driver for Winsock - Windows 7 Service - batcmd.com and downloaded the bat file after entering the details Windows 7 Pro SP1 but after running the file the problem is still there. AFD stands for Ancillary Function Driver for Winsock. When everything's working properly, it should show up in the device manager under non-plug and play devices, when you set device manager to. A vulnerability in Microsoft Windows Ancillary Function Driver could allow a local attacker to elevate privileges. The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of user supplied data by the Ancillary Function Driver (AFD). Ancillary Function Driver for Winsock - Windows 10 Service Ancillary Function Driver for Winsock. This service also exists in Windows 7, 8, Vista and XP. Ancilliary Function Driver for Winsock is afhankelijk van de volgende services: Geen afhankelijkheden. De volgende services afhankelijk van Ancilliary Function Driver for Winsock: DHCP Client; TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper. The afd.sys process is also known as Ancillary Function Driver for WinSock or, as the case may be, AFD and is a part of Microsoft Windows Operating System or, as the case may be, Ancillary Function Driver for Winsock.
The TCP/IP NetBIOS Helper service depends on the Ancillary Function Driver for Winsock service which failed to start because of the following error: A device attached to the system is not functioning.
Troubleshooting
Problem
The SiteProtector Console fails to open with an error indicating 'The console shutdown unexpectedly' and 'No buffer space available.'
Symptom
Upon trying to launch the Console, you receive the following message:The console shutdown unexpectedly java.net.SocketException:No buffer space available(maximum connections reached?):JVM_Bind
The same message can also be found in the spConsole_Trace.txt file located in %LOCALAPPDATA%SiteProtectorlog.
Cause
Due to a Windows Server 2008 R2 and Windows 7 bug, the kernel leaks loopback sockets due to a race condition on machines with more than one core. The following is the Microsoft described cause:
- This issue occurs because of a race condition in the Ancillary Function Driver for WinSock (Afd.sys) that causes sockets to be leaked. With time, the issue that is described in the 'Symptoms' section occurs if all available socket resources are exhausted.

Document Information
Vulnerability in Ancillary Function Driver (AFD) Could Allow Elevation of Privilege (2975684)
Published: July 8, 2014
Version: 1.0
Executive Summary
This security update resolves a privately reported vulnerability in Microsoft Windows. The vulnerability could allow elevation of privilege if an attacker logs onto a system and runs a specially crafted application. An attacker must have valid logon credentials and be able to log on locally to exploit this vulnerability.
This security update is rated Important for all supported releases of Microsoft Windows. For more information, see the Affected and Non-Affected Software section.
The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting the way that the Ancillary Function Driver (AFD) validates input before passing the input from user mode to the Windows kernel. For more information about the vulnerability, see the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) subsection for the specific vulnerability later in this bulletin.
Recommendation. Most customers have automatic updating enabled and will not need to take any action because this security update will be downloaded and installed automatically. For information about specific configuration options in automatic updating, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 294871. For customers who do not have automatic updating enabled, the steps in Turn automatic updating on or off can be used to enable automatic updating.
For administrators and enterprise installations, or end users who want to install this security update manually, Microsoft recommends that customers apply the update at the earliest opportunity using update management software, or by checking for updates using the Microsoft Update service. The updates are also available via the download links in the Affected Software table later in this bulletin.

Ancillary Function Driver Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability - CVE-2014-1767
A vulnerability exists in the Ancillary Function Driver (AFD) that could allow elevation of privilege. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could execute arbitrary code and take complete control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights.
To view this vulnerability as a standard entry in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures list, see CVE-2014-1767.
Mitigating Factors
Mitigation refers to a setting, common configuration, or general best-practice, existing in a default state, that could reduce the severity of exploitation of a vulnerability. The following mitigating factors may be helpful in your situation:
- An attacker must have valid logon credentials and be able to log on locally to exploit this vulnerability.
Workarounds
Microsoft has not identified any workarounds for this vulnerability.
FAQ
What is the scope of the vulnerability?
This is an elevation of privilege vulnerability.
What causes the vulnerability?
The vulnerability is caused when the Ancillary Function Driver (AFD) improperly processes user-supplied input leading to a double free scenario.
What is the Ancillary Function Driver?
The Ancillary Function Driver (AFD) supports Windows sockets applications and is contained in the afd.sys file. The afd.sys driver runs in kernel mode and manages the Winsock TCP/IP communications protocol. This Winsock kernel interface provides access to the TDI transports.
What is the Transport Driver Interface?
The Transport Driver Interface (TDI) defines a kernel-mode network interface that is exposed at the upper edge of all transport protocol stacks. The highest level protocol driver in every such stack supports the TDI interface for still higher-level kernel-mode network clients. For more information about the TDI Component, see the MSDN article, Transport Driver Interface.
What might an attacker use the vulnerability to do?
An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could run arbitrary code in kernel mode. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full administrative rights.
How could an attacker exploit the vulnerability?
To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would first have to log on to the system. An attacker could then run a specially crafted application that could exploit the vulnerability and take complete control over the affected system.
What systems are primarily at risk from the vulnerability?
Workstations and terminal servers are primarily at risk. Servers could be at more risk if administrators allow users to log on to servers and to run programs. However, best practices strongly discourage allowing this.
What does the update do?
The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting the way that the AFD validates input before passing the input from user mode to the Windows kernel.
When this security bulletin was issued, had this vulnerability been publicly disclosed?
No. Microsoft received information about this vulnerability through coordinated vulnerability disclosure.
When this security bulletin was issued, had Microsoft received any reports that this vulnerability was being exploited?
No. Microsoft had not received any information to indicate that this vulnerability had been publicly used to attack customers when this security bulletin was originally issued.
Detection and Deployment Tools and Guidance
Several resources are available to help administrators deploy security updates.
- Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer (MBSA) lets administrators scan local and remote systems for missing security updates and common security misconfigurations.
- Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), Systems Management Server (SMS), and System Center Configuration Manager help administrators distribute security updates.
- The Update Compatibility Evaluator components included with Application Compatibility Toolkit aid in streamlining the testing and validation of Windows updates against installed applications.
For information about these and other tools that are available, see Security Tools for IT Pros.
