Microsoft today released a new out of band security bulletin addressing a vulnerability in ASP.NET that affects all versions of the Microsoft .Net Framework when used on Windows Server operating systems, or on client systems that run a web server from their computer.
While that excludes the majority of desktop users, it may still affect some that run web servers on their desktop systems. Those users are asked to update immediately once the patch is released.
About the release: Microsoft will make the security patch available on Microsoft Download first, before it will be distributed via Windows Update. Dave Forstrom, Director, Trustworthy Computing said it will take approximately a few days before the update is released on Windows Update and Windows Server Update as well.
For now, Windows Server users and Windows client users running a web server should monitor Microsoft’s Download Center for the patch, which will be made available there later today.
