Frequently Asked Questions
Which systems are exposed to this issue?
Systems using Managed HttpListener in Ubuntu packages for dotnet6, dotnet8, dotnet10, or dotnet11 are implicated. The issue is remotely reachable and requires no authentication or user interaction.
What does an attacker need to do to trigger the denial of service?
An attacker needs to send an unterminated HTTP request line to a vulnerable Managed HttpListener. Processing can recurse until the process stack is exhausted, causing a denial of service.
