MS12-025: Vulnerability in .NET Framework Could Allow Remote Code Execution (2671605)

high Nessus Plugin ID 58657

Language:

Synopsis

The .NET Framework install on the remote Windows host could allow arbitrary code execution.

Description

The version of the .NET Framework installed on the remote host reportedly is affected by a code execution vulnerability because of the way .NET Framework validates parameters when passing data to a function.

An attacker may be able to leverage these vulnerabilities to execute arbitrary code on the affected system if a user can be tricked into viewing a specially crafted web page using a web browser that can run XAML Browser Applications (XBAPs). The vulnerability could also be exploited by uploading a specially crafted ASP.NET page to a server system running IIS and then executing that page.

Solution

Microsoft has released a set of patches for .NET Framework 1.0, 1.1, 2.0, 3.5.1, and 4.
