Why was this bulletin revised on December 14, 2010?
Microsoft revised this security bulletin to announce that new update packages are available for Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 (KB2416472). These new packages correct an issue in the setup that could interfere with the successful installation of other updates. For customers who may have an installation of another product or update that may have been affected by this issue, please see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 2473228 for additional information. Customers who have already successfully updated their systems do not need to take any action.
I have .NET Framework 3.0 Service Pack 2 installed; this version is not listed among the affected software in this bulletin. Do I need to install an update?
This bulletin describes a vulnerability in the .NET Framework 2.0 and the .NET Framework 3.5 feature layers. The .NET Framework 3.0 Service Pack 2 installer chains in the .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2 setup, so installing the former also installs the latter. Therefore, customers who have .NET Framework 3.0 Service Pack 2 installed need to install security updates for .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2.
I have .NET Framework 3.5 installed. Do I need to install any additional updates?
This bulletin describes a vulnerability in the .NET Framework 2.0 and the .NET Framework 3.5 feature layers. The .NET Framework 3.5 installer chains in both the .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1 setup and the .NET Framework 3.0 Service Pack 1 setup. Therefore, customers who have .NET Framework 3.5 installed also need to install security updates for .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 1 in addition to the updates for .NET Framework 3.5.
To help determine if there are any additional versions of the .NET Framework installed on your system, see the FAQ entry, "How do I determine which version of the Microsoft .NET Framework is installed," later in this section.

ASP.NET Padding Oracle Vulnerability - CVE-2010-3332
An information disclosure vulnerability exists in ASP.NET due to improper error handling during encryption padding verification. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could read data, such as the view state, which was encrypted by the server. This vulnerability can also be used for data tampering, which, if successfully exploited, could be used to decrypt and tamper with the data encrypted by the server. Note that this vulnerability would not allow an attacker to execute code or to elevate their user rights directly, but it could be used to produce information that could be used to try to further compromise the affected system. In Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and above, this vulnerability can also be used by an attacker to retrieve the contents of any file within the ASP.NET application, including web.config.
To view this vulnerability as a standard entry in the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures list, see CVE-2010-3332.
Mitigating Factors for ASP.NET Padding Oracle Vulnerability - CVE-2010-3332
Mitigation refers to a setting, common configuration, or general best-practice, existing in a default state, that could reduce the severity of exploitation of a vulnerability. The following mitigating factors may be helpful in your situation:
- Microsoft .NET Framework versions prior to Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 are not affected by the file content disclosure portion of this vulnerability.
Workarounds for ASP.NET Padding Oracle Vulnerability - CVE-2010-3332
Workaround refers to a setting or configuration change that does not correct the underlying vulnerability but would help block known attack vectors before you apply the update. Microsoft has tested the following workarounds and states in the discussion whether a workaround reduces functionality:
Enable a UrlScan or Request Filtering rule, enable ASP.NET custom errors, and map all error codes to the same error page
Enabling the customErrors feature of ASP.NET and explicitly configuring applications to always return the same error page, regardless of the error encountered on the server, can make it more difficult for an attacker using the current exploit to distinguish between the different types of errors that occur on a server.
On systems using the .NET Framework version 3.5 Service Pack 1 and above, the workaround provides further protection by also helping to protect against the timing attack portion of the current exploit. The workaround uses the redirectMode="ResponseRewrite" option in the customErrors feature, and introduces a random delay in the error page. These approaches work together to make it more difficult for an attacker to deduce the type of error that occurred on the server by measuring the time it took to receive the error.
Additionally, this workaround requires blocking requests that specify the application error path on the querystring. This can be done using URLScan, a free tool for Internet Information Services (IIS) that can selectively block requests based on rules defined by the administrator. If your system is running Internet Information Services (IIS) on Windows Vista Service Pack 2, Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2, Windows 7, or Windows Server 2008 R2, you can alternatively use the Request Filtering feature.
Block requests that modify ASP.Net application error path on the request querystring
Using UrlScan:
Download and install UrlScan 3.1. For further instructions on configuring and using UrlScan, see UrlScan 3 Reference.
Modify UrlScan.ini (found in %windir%\system32\inetsrv\urlscan). Insert the following line under the [DenyQueryStringSequences] section of the Urlscan.ini file:
aspxerrorpath=After you do so, the [DenyQueryStringSequences] section should look similar to this (additional lines in the section are okay and do not affect the workaround):
[DenyQueryStringSequences] aspxerrorpath=- Run iisreset from a command prompt while logged in as an administrator.
Using IIS request filtering:
These instructions are an alternative for the UrlScan instructions above for systems running IIS on Windows Vista Service Pack 2, Windows Server 2008 Service Pack 2, Windows 7, or Windows Server 2008 R2.
Install the Request Filtering feature in IIS through either Add/Remove Programs or Role Manger by selecting the feature under Internet Information Services, World Wide Web Services, Security.
Launch Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager.
Select the server node in the left pane.
Double-click Request Filtering.
Select the Query Strings tab and click Deny Query String … in the Actions pane.
Enter aspxerrorpath= in the dialog box and select OK.
Alternatively, you can also use the following appcmd command to set this request querystring:
appcmd set config /section:requestfiltering /+denyQueryStringSequences.[sequence='aspxerrorpath=']For more information on using appcmd to configure IIS, see Getting Started with AppCmd.exe.
Configure ASP.Net applications to use uniform custom errors
In the root folder of each ASP.NET web application, determine if you already have a web.config file in this folder. You must have rights to create a file in the target directory to implement this workaround.
If the ASP.NET application does not have a web.config file:
On .NET Framework 3.5 and earlier
- Create a text file named web.config in the root folder of the ASP.NET application, and insert the following contents:
<configuration>
2. Create a text file named **error.html** containing a generic error message and save it in the root folder of the ASP.NET application.
3. Alternatively, you can rename error.html in the **web.config** file to point to an existing error page, but that page must display generic content, not context-specific content.
**On .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and later**
1. Create a text file named **web.config** in the root folder of the ASP.NET application, and insert the following contents:
```
<configuration>
2. If you are comfortable using C\#, we recommend using the following **ErrorPage.aspx** file:
```
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Security.Cryptography" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Threading" %>
```
```
<script runat="server">
void Page_Load() {
byte[] delay = new byte[1];
RandomNumberGenerator prng = new RNGCryptoServiceProvider();
prng.GetBytes(delay);
Thread.Sleep((int)delay[0]);
IDisposable disposable = prng as IDisposable;
if (disposable != null) { disposable.Dispose(); }
}
</script>
```

2. Create a text file named **error.html** containing a generic error message and save it in the root folder of the ASP.NET application.
3. Alternatively, you can rename error.html in the **web.config** file to point to an existing error page, but that page must display generic content, not context-specific content.
**On .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and later**
1. Insert the bracketed text in the sample below into your existing **web.config** file:
```
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
[<location allowoverride="false">
<system.web> </system.web> ]
</configuration>
<system.web> ... </system.web> <system.codedom> ... </system.codedom>
```
2. If you are comfortable using C\#, we recommend using the following **ErrorPage.aspx** file:
```

<%@ Import Namespace="System.Security.Cryptography" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Threading" %>
```
```
<script runat="server">
void Page_Load() {
byte[] delay = new byte[1];
RandomNumberGenerator prng = new RNGCryptoServiceProvider();
prng.GetBytes(delay);
Thread.Sleep((int)delay[0]);
IDisposable disposable = prng as IDisposable;

**Impact of Workaround:** If an error occurs during a Web transaction, the Web clients will see the same generic error message on the server, regardless of what error actually occurs. Additionally, any requests for Web pages which contain the string **aspxerrropath=** in the querystring portion of the URL will be blocked, and an HTTP error message returned to the client.
FAQ for ASP.NET Padding Oracle Vulnerability - CVE-2010-3332
What is the scope of the vulnerability?
This is an information disclosure vulnerability. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability would be able to read data, such as the view state, which was encrypted by the server. This vulnerability can also be used for data tampering, which, if successfully exploited, could be used to decrypt and tamper with the data encrypted by the server. In Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and above, this vulnerability can also be used by an attacker to retrieve the contents of any file within the ASP.NET application, including web.config. Note that this vulnerability would not allow an attacker to execute code or to elevate their user rights directly, but it could be used to produce information that could be used to try to further compromise the affected system.
What causes the vulnerability?
The ASP.NET use of encryption padding provides information in error responses that can be used by an attacker to read and tamper with the encrypted data.
What is ASP.NET?
ASP.NET is a collection of technologies within the Microsoft .NET Framework that enable developers to build Web applications and XML Web Services.
Unlike traditional Web pages, which use a combination of static HTML and scripting, ASP.NET uses compiled, event-driven pages. Because ASP.NET is a Web-based application environment, requiring an underlying Web server to provide basic HTTP functionality, ASP.NET runs on top of Internet Information Services (IIS). For more information, see The Official Microsoft ASP.NET Site.
What is ASP.NET View State?
Microsoft ASP.NET View State is the technique used by an ASP.NET Web page to persist changes to the state of a Web Form across postbacks. The View State of a page is, by default, placed in a hidden form field named __VIEWSTATE. For more information on ASP.NET View State, see MSDN article, Understanding ASP.NET View State.
What might an attacker use the vulnerability to do?
An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability would be able to read data, such as the view state, which was encrypted by the server. The attacker may then be able to read the contents of any file within the web site directory or subdirectories, such as web.config. The web.config file often stores sensitive information. The consequences of the disclosure of that information depend on the nature of the information itself.
An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could also read data from files on the target server which exist in the website directory or subdirectories.
How could an attacker exploit the vulnerability?
To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker would send cipher text via a Web request to an affected server to determine whether the text was decrypted properly by examining the error code returned by the website. An attacker who made enough of these requests could learn enough information to read or tamper with the encrypted data.
What systems are primarily at risk from the vulnerability?
Web servers with ASP.NET installed are at risk from this vulnerability.
Am I vulnerable if I have a custom logging module that redirects to an error page instead of using the workaround listed below?
If the responses that are sent out from your custom logging module do not let the client distinguish between error responses either through its content or time that it takes to serve out, then such a module is an adequate replacement for the customErrors workaround. These responses include both the entire HTTP response and the HTTP error code. If any of the above is not true at all times, then this is not sufficient.
Can I create a custom 404 page and a default redirect for all other errors to help protect against this issue?
No. An attacker could still draw a distinction between a 404 error and other errors. Homogenizing errors is a crucial component to help protect against this attack.
Should I be concerned about this vulnerability if I don't store any sensitive information in my View State?
Yes. If you are storing sensitive information in any file in the web application, this vulnerability could be used to disclose the contents of that file to an attacker.
What are best practices to secure my data within the web.config file?
It is best practice to encrypt sensitive configuration data within web.config files. For detailed information on encrypting configuration sections, see MSDN article, Encrypting and Decrypting Configuration Sections.
Does this issue affect both ASP.NET Web Form and ASP.NET MVC Web applications?
Yes. The publicly disclosed exploit can be used against all types of ASP.NET applications, including both Web Forms and MVC. For additional information on ASP.NET MVC, see MSDN article, ASP.NET MVC Overview.
Are other applications built on the ASP.NET platform, such as SharePoint and Exchange, affected by this issue?
All applications that rely on the ASP.NET platform are affected by this issue. Administrators of these applications should follow the recommendations outlined in this advisory.
Will switching to Triple DES encryption instead of AES encryption help protect my ASP.NET application?
No. The cryptographic vulnerability being presented involves revealing cryptographic padding errors to a client for algorithms that use PKCS #7 padding. Since Triple DES shares this padding mode with AES, switching to Triple DES will not protect against this vulnerability.
What is Triple DES (3DES)?
Triple DES (3DES) is an implementation of Data Encryption Standard (DES) encryption that employs three iterations of cryptographic operations on each segment of data. Each iteration uses a 56-bit key for encryption, which yields 168-bit encryption for the data. Although 3DES is slower than DES because of the additional cryptographic calculations, its protection is far stronger than DES.
What is Advanced Encryption Standard (AES)?
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is a form of encryption that was adopted by the United States government in 2001. AES provides more secure encryption than its predecessor, Data Encryption Standard (DES).
What is PKCS #7 padding?
The Public Key Cryptography Standard (PKCS) #7 is a general syntax for data to which cryptography may be applied, such as digital signatures and encryption. It also provides a syntax for disseminating certificates or certificate revocation lists and other message attributes, such as time stamps, to the message. The PKCS #7 padding string consists of a sequence of bytes, each of which is equal to the total number of padding bytes added.
Does this issue affect Oracle database products?
No. The issue is not related to any database products. The word "oracle" in this case refers to a cryptographic term.
What does the update do?
The update addressed the vulnerability by signing all data that is encrypted by ASP.NET.
When this security bulletin was issued, had this vulnerability been publicly disclosed?
Yes. This vulnerability has been publicly disclosed. It has been assigned Common Vulnerability and Exposure number CVE-2010-3332.
When this security bulletin was issued, had Microsoft received any reports that this vulnerability was being exploited?
Yes. Microsoft is aware of limited, targeted attacks attempting to exploit the vulnerability.

Verifying That the Update Has Been Applied
Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer
To verify that a security update has been applied to an affected system, you may be able to use the Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer (MBSA) tool. See the section, Detection and Deployment Tools and Guidance, earlier in this bulletin for more information.
File Version Verification
Because there are several editions of Microsoft Windows, the following steps may be different on your system. If they are, see your product documentation to complete these steps.
- Click Start, and then click Search.
- In the Search Results pane, click All files and folders under Search Companion.
- In the All or part of the file name box, type a file name from the appropriate file information table, and then click Search.
- In the list of files, right-click a file name from the appropriate file information table, and then click Properties.
Note Depending on the edition of the operating system, or the programs that are installed on your system, some of the files that are listed in the file information table may not be installed. - On the Version tab, determine the version of the file that is installed on your system by comparing it to the version that is documented in the appropriate file information table.
Note Attributes other than the file version may change during installation. Comparing other file attributes to the information in the file information table is not a supported method of verifying that the update has been applied. Also, in certain cases, files may be renamed during installation. If the file or version information is not present, use one of the other available methods to verify update installation.
Registry Key Verification
You may also be able to verify the files that this security update has installed by reviewing the registry keys listed in the Reference Table in this section.
These registry keys may not contain a complete list of installed files. Also, these registry keys may not be created correctly when an administrator or an OEM integrates or slipstreams this security update into the Windows installation source files.

This security update supports the following setup switches.
| Switch | Description |
|---|---|
| /help | Displays the command-line options. |
| Setup Modes | |
| /passive | Unattended Setup mode. No user interaction is required, but installation status is displayed. If a restart is required at the end of Setup, a dialog box will be presented to the user with a timer warning that the computer will restart in 30 seconds. |
| /quiet | Quiet mode. This is the same as unattended mode, but no status or error messages are displayed. |
| Restart Options | |
| /norestart | Does not restart when installation has completed. |
| /forcerestart | Restarts the computer after installation and force other applications to close at shutdown without saving open files first. |
| /warnrestart[:x] | Presents a dialog box with a timer warning the user that the computer will restart in x seconds. (The default setting is 30 seconds.) Intended for use with the /quiet switch or the /passive switch. |
| /promptrestart | Displays a dialog box prompting the local user to allow a restart. |
| Special Options | |
| /overwriteoem | Overwrites OEM files without prompting. |
| /nobackup | Does not back up files needed for uninstall. |
| /forceappsclose | Forces other programs to close when the computer shuts down. |
| /log:path | Allows the redirection of installation log files. |
| /integrate:path | Integrates the update into the Windows source files. These files are located at the path that is specified in the switch. |
| /extract[:path] | Extracts files without starting the Setup program. |
| /ER | Enables extended error reporting. |
| /verbose | Enables verbose logging. During installation, creates %Windir%\CabBuild.log. This log details the files that are copied. Using this switch may cause the installation to proceed more slowly. |
Note You can combine these switches into one command. For backward compatibility, the security update also supports the setup switches that the earlier version of the Setup program uses. For more information about the supported installation switches, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 262841.

Note for Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Service Pack 2 (KB2418241) When you install this security update, the installer checks whether the product or component being updated has previously been updated by a Microsoft hotfix.
If you have previously installed a hotfix to update one of these files, the installer copies the LDR (or QFE) version of the files to your system. Otherwise, the installer copies the GDR version of the files to your system. For more information about this behavior, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 960043.
For more information about the installer, visit the MSDN Web site.

Verifying that the Update Has Been Applied
Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer
To verify that a security update has been applied to an affected system, you may be able to use the Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer (MBSA) tool. See the section, Detection and Deployment Tools and Guidance, earlier in this bulletin for more information.
File Version Verification
Because there are several editions of Microsoft Windows, the following steps may be different on your system. If they are, see your product documentation to complete these steps.
- Click Start, and then click Search.
- In the Search Results pane, click All files and folders under Search Companion.
- In the All or part of the file name box, type a file name from the appropriate file information table, and then click Search.
- In the list of files, right-click a file name from the appropriate file information table, and then click Properties.
Note Depending on the edition of the operating system, or the programs that are installed on your system, some of the files that are listed in the file information table may not be installed. - On the Version tab, determine the version of the file that is installed on your system by comparing it to the version that is documented in the appropriate file information table.
Note Attributes other than the file version may change during installation. Comparing other file attributes to the information in the file information table is not a supported method of verifying that the update has been applied. Also, in certain cases, files may be renamed during installation. If the file or version information is not present, use one of the other available methods to verify update installation.
Registry Key Verification
You may also be able to verify the files that this security update has installed by reviewing the registry keys listed in the Reference Table in this section.
These registry keys may not contain a complete list of installed files. Also, these registry keys may not be created correctly when an administrator or an OEM integrates or slipstreams this security update into the Windows installation source files.
