Description:
SPI Labs has reported a vulnerability in ASP.NET, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The vulnerability is caused due to an input validation error in the "System.Xml.Serialization.Xml.XmlSerializationReader.ReadReferencedElements()" function. This can be exploited to cause an infinite loop and consume a large amount of CPU resources on a vulnerable system by sending a specially crafted SOAP message to a RCP/encoded web method, which takes an array as input.
