Changes in 3.1.1

.NET Core 3.1.1 release carries both security and non-security fixes.

CVE-2020-0602: ASP.NET Core Denial of Service 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.

Microsoft is aware of 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.

CVE-2020-0603: ASP.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.

Microsoft is aware of a remote code execution vulnerability exists in ASP.NET Core software when the software fails to handle objects in memory. 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.

CVE-2020-0605: .NET Core Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

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

Microsoft is aware of a remote code execution vulnerability exists in .NET software when the software fails to check the source markup of a file. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could run arbitrary code in the context of the current user.

Exploitation of the vulnerability requires that a user open a specially crafted file with an affected version of .NET Core. In an email attack scenario, an attacker could exploit the vulnerability by sending the specially crafted file to the user and convincing the user to open the file.

The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how .NET Core checks the source markup of a file.

Package name Vulnerable versions Secure versions
Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App 3.0.0 - 3.0.1 3.0.2
Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App 3.1.0 3.1.1
