DescriptionCVE.org

Allocation of resources without limits or throttling in ASP.NET Core allows an unauthorized attacker to deny service over a network.

AnalysisAI

Denial of service in ASP.NET Core (the web framework shipped with .NET 8.0, 9.0, and 10.0) lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker exhaust server resources by triggering unbounded allocations over the network. Because affected requests are not throttled or capped, a single crafted request stream can degrade availability of the hosting process without any authentication or user interaction. Reported by Microsoft with a vendor patch available; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no CISA KEV listing.

Technical ContextAI

The flaw is a CWE-770 (Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling) weakness in ASP.NET Core, Microsoft's cross-platform web application framework and Kestrel-based HTTP stack bundled into the .NET runtime. The affected CPEs are the .NET 8.0, 9.0, and 10.0 platforms (cpe:2.3:a:microsoft:.net_8.0/9.0/10.0). CWE-770 root cause means the framework accepts attacker-influenced input that drives memory, CPU, connection, or object allocation without applying an upper bound or rate limit, so an attacker can force the process to consume resources faster than it can reclaim them, culminating in memory pressure or thread/connection starvation and process failure.

RemediationAI

Patch available per vendor advisory - apply the updated .NET 8.0, 9.0, or 10.0 runtime/SDK builds published in Microsoft's Security Update Guide at https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2026-56170, then rebuild/redeploy applications or update the shared framework on hosts and restart the affected ASP.NET Core processes. The exact patched version strings are listed in that advisory and should be taken directly from it rather than assumed. As compensating controls until patching, place a reverse proxy or WAF in front of Kestrel to enforce request-rate limiting and request/body size caps, enable ASP.NET Core's built-in rate-limiting and request-body/size limits (MaxRequestBodySize, connection and header limits) where applicable, and restrict exposure of the affected endpoints to trusted networks; the trade-off is that aggressive limits can throttle legitimate high-volume clients and require tuning to avoid false-positive request rejection.
