CVE-2023-29326: .NET Framework Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

A remote code execution vulnerability exists when Microsoft .NET Framework fails to properly validate input before loading libraries. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could take control of an affected system. An attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than users who operate with administrative user rights.

To exploit the vulnerability, an attacker would first need to access the local system with the ability to execute a malicious application.

The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how .NET validates input on library load.
