4.3
MediumMetricsAV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Microsoft ASP .NET Framework version 2.0.50727.42
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to bypass request filtering, which can lead to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks or cause a denial of service. This can be achieved by exploiting the improper handling of comment enclosures, for example, via an xss:expression STYLE attribute in a closing XSS HTML tag.
Recommendations
For Microsoft ASP .NET Framework version 2.0.50727.42, consider updating to a newer version that properly handles comment enclosures to prevent request filtering bypass and subsequent attacks. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to potentially vulnerable endpoints to minimize the risk of exploitation.
