CVE-2000-0190 is a denial-of-service vulnerability affecting the AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) client. An attacker can exploit this issue by sending a malformed ASCII value through a message, triggering a response that consumes significant system resources and causes the client to crash or become unresponsive. This can lead to a denial of service condition for the affected user, preventing them from using the AIM service until the issue is resolved.
