.NET Core and Visual Studio Denial of Service Vulnerability

The Microsoft .NET Core installation on the remote host is version 3.1.x prior to 3.1.16, 5.x prior to 5.0.7. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause the application to stop responding.

The Microsoft Visual Studio Products are missing security updates. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A remote code execution vulnerability. An attacker can     exploit this to bypass authentication and execute     unauthorized arbitrary commands. (CVE-2021-1639)

  - A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability. An attacker can     exploit this issue to cause the affected component to     deny system or application services. (CVE-2021-1721)

The Microsoft .NET Core runtime installed on the remote macOS or Mac OS X host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in .NET Core when creating HTTPS web requests during X509     certificate chain building. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause the application     to stop responding. (CVE-2021-1721)

  - A remote code execution vulnerability exists in .NET Core when parsing certain types of graphics files. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to execute arbitrary code. This vulnerability only     exists on systems running on macOS or Linux. (CVE-2021-24112)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Microsoft .NET Core SDK installation on the remote host is version 2.1.x prior to 2.1.521, 2.1.6xx prior to 2.1.813, 3.1.x prior to 3.1.112, 3.1.2xx prior to 3.1.406, or 5.x prior to 5.0.103. It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability when creating HTTPS web requests during X509 certificate chain building. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause the application to stop responding.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

It is, therefore, affected by a denial of service vulnerability when creating HTTPS web requests during X509 certificate chain building. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause the application to stop responding.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
