Vendor:
==================
www.microsoft.com



Product:
===========================
Microsoft .NET Framework


Vulnerability Type:
============================
XSS / Elevation of Privilege


CVE Reference:
==============
CVE-2015-6099



Vulnerability Details:
======================

Microsoft .NET Framework is prone to a cross-site scripting vulnerability because it fails
to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker may leverage this issue to execute arbitrary
script code in the browser of an unsuspecting user in the context of the affected site. This may
allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials and launch other attacks.

.NET Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability - CVE-2015-6099

An elevation of privilege vulnerability exists when ASP.NET improperly validates values in HTTP requests,
exposing users to a potential cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. An attacker who successfully exploited the
vulnerability could leverage a vulnerable website to inject client-side script into a user’s browser and
ultimately modify or spoof content, conduct phishing activities, disclose information, or perform any action on
the vulnerable website that the target user has permission to perform. To exploit this vulnerability, user interaction
is required. In a web-browsing scenario a user would have to navigate to a compromised website.

In an email attack scenario an attacker would have to convince a user who is logged on to a vulnerable server to
click a specially crafted link in an email. The update addresses the vulnerability by modifying how ASP.NET validates
the value of an HTTP request.

Microsoft received information about the vulnerability through coordinated vulnerability disclosure. At the time this security
bulletin was originally issued, Microsoft was unaware of any attack attempting to exploit this vulnerability.

Microsoft has not identified any mitigating factors for this vulnerability.
Microsoft has not identified any workarounds for this vulnerability.

The following workarounds may be helpful in your situation:

Remove requestPathInvalidCharacters key from web.config
In order to work around this issue, administrators can remove the <httpRuntime requestPathInvalidCharacters="" />
non-default setting from web.config, or at least include “:” in the requestPathInvalidCharacters setting.

How to undo the workaround: 
Restore the previously removed <httpRuntime requestPathInvalidCharacters="" /> line.
