MS02-026: Unchecked Buffer in ASP.NET Worker Process (Traditional Chinese)

A buffer overrun vulnerability exists in Microsoft ASP.NET. An attacker who was able to successfully exploit this vulnerability could cause the application that is running on the Web server to restart. Additionally, although Microsoft has not been able to demonstrate it, an attacker could exploit this vulnerability to cause code to run on the Web server. The code could run in the security context of the ASP.NET worker process (Aspnet_wp.exe), which uses an unprivileged account by default.

This vulnerability affects only ASP.NET applications that use StateServer mode to manage session state information. StateServer mode is not the default mode. Finally, this vulnerability affects only those applications that use StateServer mode and that also use cookies. This vulnerability does not affect applications that use StateServer mode without cookies.

This vulnerability occurs because a function that processes cookie data in the ASPState service cannot properly check the length of the cookies that are passed to it.

A supported fix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to correct the problem that is described in this article. Apply it only to computers that you determine are at risk of attack. Evaluate your computer's physical accessibility, network and Internet connectivity, and other factors to determine the degree of risk to your computer. See the associated Microsoft Security Bulletin to help determine the degree of risk. This fix may receive additional testing. If your computer is sufficiently at risk, Microsoft recommends that you apply this fix now. Otherwise, wait for the next Microsoft .NET Framework service pack that contains this fix.
