## Notable Changes in 2.1.4

### [CVE-2018-8409: .NET Core Denial Of Service Vulnerability](https://github.com/dotnet/Announcements/issues/83)

**Executive summary**

Microsoft is releasing this security advisory to provide information about a vulnerability in .NET Core 2.1. This advisory also provides guidance on what developers can do to update their applications to remove this vulnerability.

Microsoft is aware of a denial of service vulnerability in .NET Core when System.IO.Pipelines improperly handles requests. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could cause a denial of service against an application that is leveraging System.IO.Pipelines. The vulnerability can be exploited remotely, without authentication. A remote unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing specially crafted requests to the application.

The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how System.IO.Pipelines handles requests.

#### Package and Binary updates

| Package name | Vulnerable versions | Secure versions |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
System.IO.Pipelines | 4.5.0 | 4.5.1 |


### [CVE-2018-8409: ASP.NET Core Denial Of Service Vulnerability](https://github.com/aspnet/Announcements/issues/316)

**Executive summary**

Microsoft is releasing this security advisory to provide information about a vulnerability in ASP.NET Core 2.1. This advisory also provides guidance on what developers can do to update their applications to remove this vulnerability.

Microsoft is aware of a denial of service vulnerability when ASP.NET Core improperly handles web requests. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could cause a denial of service against an ASP.NET Core web application. The vulnerability can be exploited remotely, without authentication. A remote unauthenticated attacker could exploit this vulnerability by providing a specially crafted web requests to the ASP.NET Core application.

The update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how ASP.NET Core handles parsing web requests.
