Security

A denial of service vulnerability exists in ASP.NET Core 2.2 where, if an application is hosted on Internet Information Server (IIS) a remote unauthenticated attacker can use a specially crafted request to cause a Denial of Service.

The vulnerability affects any Microsoft ASP.NET Core 2.2 applications if it is hosted on an IIS server running AspNetCoreModuleV2 (ANCM) prior to and including 12.2.19024.2. The security update addresses the vulnerability by ensuring the IIS worker process does not crash in response to specially crafted requests.

The latest .NET Core updates are available on the .NET Core download page.
