An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2018-8517 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Microsoft .Net Framework. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-8517/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-8517/index.md)","id":"CVE-2018-8517","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-8517/index.md","name":"CVE-2018-8517","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-6m2p-4g25-m3gv"],"analysis":{"component_type":"library","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Microsoft .NET Framework","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service in Microsoft .NET Framework by sending specially crafted web requests.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"microsoft","cpe":[{"product":".net_framework","vendor":"microsoft"}],"cvss":{"score":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"A denial of service vulnerability exists when .NET Framework improperly handles special web requests, aka \".NET Framework Denial Of Service Vulnerability.\" This affects Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6, Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5, Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7/4.7.1/4.7.2, Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6/4.6.1/4.6.2/4.7/4.7.1/4.7.1/4.7.2, Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5.1, Microsoft .NET Framework 4.6.2/4.7/4.7.1/4.7.2, Microsoft .NET Framework 4.5.2, Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.1/4.7.2, Microsoft .NET Framework 4.7.2.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Denial of service in Microsoft .NET Framework","id":"CVE-2018-8517","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"microsoft:.net_framework","products":["microsoft:.net_framework"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2018"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Microsoft SharePoint","id":"CVE-2018-8518"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Information disclosure in Windows 10","id":"CVE-2018-8514"},"products":["Microsoft .NET Framework"],"published":"2018-12-12","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Microsoft .NET Framework Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2020-0646","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2020-01-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft .NET Framework Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2017-8759","kev_date_added":"2021-11-03","published":"2017-09-13"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Microsoft Windows Remote Code Execution","id":"CVE-2015-1671","kev_date_added":"2022-05-25","published":"2015-05-13"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Microsoft .NET Framework Information Disclosure","id":"CVE-2024-29059","kev_date_added":"2025-02-04","published":"2024-03-22"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Privilege escalation in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-4073","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-10-15"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-4121","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-10-15"},{"cvss_score":10,"headline":"Code injection in n/a","id":"CVE-2014-1806","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2014-05-14"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-05","vendors":["Microsoft"]},"summary":"Attackers can cause a denial of service in Microsoft .NET Framework by sending specially crafted web requests.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2018-8517/"}
