Changes in 2.1.21

.NET Core 2.1.21 release carries both security and non-security fixes.

CVE-2020-1597 | NET Core Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

Microsoft is releasing this security advisory to provide information about a vulnerability in ASP.NET Core. This advisory also provides guidance on what developers can do to update their applications to remove this vulnerability.

A denial of service vulnerability exists when ASP.NET Core improperly handles web requests. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could cause a denial of service against an ASP.NET Core web application. The vulnerability can be exploited remotely, without authentication.

A remote unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability by issuing specially crafted requests to the ASP.NET Core application.

The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how the ASP.NET Core web application handles web requests.
