Microsoft ASP.NET Security Advisory

Dave Hayden — Sat, 18 Sep 2010 09:28:00 GMT

Microsoft just released a security advisory for ASP.NET Websites. You can read the official advisory here.

To avoid this security problem, you may need to patch your Web.Config to use CustomErrors and map all errors to a single error page. Everyone should have CustomErrors turned on, but you also need to make sure you are only returning a single error page for all errors as well as a couple other things. There are also certain changes based on the .NET Framework version.

If you are managing any ASP.NET Websites, I highly recommend you make any necessary patches to be safe. Note that you can make these changes without compiling your application, which is a good thing!

Scott Guthrie has a detailed post on the changes that need to be made.
