More Information

Known issues and additional information about this security update

The security updates that are offered in security bulletin MS11-100 change the way that ASP.NET creates forms authentication tickets. The new behavior is incompatible with the previous behavior. Tickets that are generated by using the new behavior cannot be read by servers that use the old behavior, and vice versa. Therefore, because of the ticket behavior change, administrators whose applications use forms authentication must take specific steps when they deploy the security updates offered in bulletin MS11-100 to make sure that all servers switch to the new behavior concurrently.
