CVE-2026-92707

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Microsoft .NET Framework, Microsoft .NET, Microsoft ASP.NET, Microsoft Visual Studio 2022, Microsoft Visual Studio 2026, Microsoft Visual Studio Code, Microsoft SysInternals und Microsoft PowerShell ausnutzen, um seine Privilegien zu erhöhen, um Code auszuführen, um Informationen offenzulegen, um Sicherheitsmechanismen zu umgehen und um einen Denial of Service Zustand herbeizuführen.

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in Microsoft PowerToys, Microsoft Power Apps und Microsoft Apps ausnutzen, um erweiterte Berechtigungen – einschließlich Administratorrechte – zu erlangen, beliebigen Code auszuführen, Daten zu manipulieren oder einen Denial-of-Service-Zustand auszulösen.

### Impact MessagePack-CSharp is vulnerable to denial of service through excessive memory allocation when deserializing attacker-controlled data into `System.Object`. When `PrimitiveObjectFormatter` encounters an array, it allocates an `object[]` using the declared array length **before** enforcing the configured maximum object-graph depth. A specially crafted payload containing deeply nested arrays can therefore keep many large arrays live simultaneously before deserialization is rejected for exceeding the depth limit. Because the array-header validation uses the total unread byte count as evidence that the declared elements may be present, nested array headers can reuse the same trailing bytes for this validation. This permits a relatively small payload to cause disproportionately large managed-heap allocations. The reported example uses an approximately 31.5 KiB payload to allocate roughly 114.7 MiB of reference storage on x64—an amplification factor of approximately 3,800—before the depth exception is raised. Repeated requests may cause severe memory pressure, excessive garbage collection, process termination, or loss of service availability. Applications are affected when they: - Deserialize untrusted MessagePack data as `object`, or otherwise use a resolver path that selects `PrimitiveObjectFormatter`; and - Permit an attacker to submit such data repeatedly. ASP.NET Core SignalR is one known way to expose the vulnerability remotely: an application that enables `AddMessagePackProtocol()` and has a reachable hub method with an `object` parameter may pass attacker-controlled arguments to the vulnerable MessagePack-CSharp formatter. However, the underlying vulnerability is in MessagePack-CSharp, not SignalR, and other applications that deserialize untrusted data through the same formatter may also be affected. MessagePack-CSharp 2.5.302 is confirmed to contain the vulnerable code. Other releases containing the same allocate-before-depth-check behavior may also be affected. Authentication requirements depend on the application exposing the deserialization endpoint: exploitation requires no privileges for a publicly reachable endpoint, while protected endpoints retain their configured authorization requirements. ### Workarounds Where possible, avoid deserializing untrusted data into `System.Object`, including `object`-typed members of otherwise strongly typed models. Use concrete, narrowly defined DTO types instead. For ASP.NET Core SignalR applications, any of the following can prevent or reduce exposure: - Replace `object` parameters in reachable hub methods with concrete types. - Disable the MessagePack hub protocol and use another protocol until a patched MessagePack-CSharp release is available. - Restrict affected hub methods to trusted and authenticated callers. - Apply rate limits and connection limits to reduce the ability to repeat malicious requests. Reducing the maximum deserialization depth or transport message size may reduce the worst-case allocation, but should be treated only as defense in depth. It does not correct the allocate-before-depth-check behavior and is not a complete remediation. Applications with advanced resolver configurations may use a custom formatter for `object` that enforces the depth limit before allocating arrays. Such a formatter should be carefully reviewed and tested against untrusted input.
