Microsoft Security Advisory CVE-2026-111497 - .NET Brotli Decoder Out-of-bounds Write Vulnerability — Microsoft.DotNet.ILCompiler
Out-of-bounds WriteExecutive summary
A buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the Brotli decompression library used by .NET. This vulnerability may allow an unauthenticated attacker to read or corrupt process memory. This could lead to information disclosure, denial of service, or elevation of privilege.
ASP.NET Core and HttpClient do not automatically decompress Brotli data in their default configurations. Applications are exposed when they enable Brotli decompression or explicitly use Brotli decompression APIs to process attacker-controlled data, as described below. .NET Framework is not affected.

Mitigations
ASP.NET Core request decompression and HttpClient automatic response decompression are not enabled by default. An application is not exposed merely because an affected .NET package is installed. Exposure requires the application to decompress attacker-controlled Brotli data through one of these paths:
- Enable ASP.NET Core automatic request decompression with Brotli (
br) support. - Enable HttpClient automatic response decompression by configuring HttpClientHandler.AutomaticDecompression or SocketsHttpHandler.AutomaticDecompression to include DecompressionMethods.Brotli or
DecompressionMethods.All. - Explicitly use Brotli decompression APIs in
System.IO.Compression, such asBrotliStreamorBrotliDecoder.
Until the update can be deployed, avoid decompressing attacker-controlled Brotli data.
The following examples show how to disable Brotli decompression if you are already using it.
> Warning: Do not use these code snippets if you are not already using decompression. Do not introduce a call to AddRequestDecompression if your application does not already call it. Similarly, do not introduce an AutomaticDecompression property assignment if your application does not already set that property. Modify only your existing decompression configuration. Enabling automatic decompression can introduce denial-of-service risks even when Brotli is excluded.
If you are already using Brotli request decompression in ASP.NET Core, exclude it by removing the br entry from your existing decompression configuration. This retains the default gzip and deflate providers:
builder.Services.AddRequestDecompression(options =>
{
options.DecompressionProviders.Remove("br");
});
If your application already enables HttpClient automatic response decompression, disable Brotli by updating the flags on your existing handler so they do not include DecompressionMethods.Brotli:
var handler = new HttpClientHandler
{
AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip | DecompressionMethods.Deflate
};
var httpClient = new HttpClient(handler);
Applications that directly use Brotli decompression APIs must stop passing untrusted Brotli data to those APIs until updated. Ensure that other application code does not continue to decompress the same untrusted Brotli data. These changes can affect normal request and response handling and should be tested before deployment. Installing the security update remains the recommended fix.

Advisory FAQ
<a name="how-affected"></a>How do I know if I am affected?
You are affected if your application uses an affected Brotli decoder included in a package listed in affected packages, including a decoder linked into a NativeAOT application, to decompress attacker-controlled data. See mitigations for the affected usage paths and default settings.
<a name="how-fix"></a>How do I fix the issue?
Install the updated runtime or SDK for the .NET version used by your application. If your application directly references an affected package, update that reference to the patched version listed above.
.NET release | Runtime | SDK versions ------------ | ------- | ------------ .NET 8 | 8.0.33 | 8.0.133, 8.0.427 .NET 9 | 9.0.22 | 9.0.123, 9.0.320 .NET 10 | 10.0.14 | 10.0.114, 10.0.403 .NET 11 previews | 11.0.0-rc.3.26522.148 | 11.0.100-rc.3.26522.148
Download .NET from https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet.
Once you have installed the updated runtime or SDK, restart your apps for the update to take effect.
If you have deployed self-contained applications, rebuild and redeploy those applications with the updated runtime.
For NativeAOT applications, update the SDK and any explicit compiler or runtime-pack references to patched versions, then republish and redeploy the application. Updating the machine's shared runtime alone does not replace a decoder already linked into a NativeAOT executable.

Frequently Asked Questions
A security vulnerability is a weakness in software, hardware, or configuration that can be exploited to compromise confidentiality, integrity, or availability. Many vulnerabilities are tracked as CVEs (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures), which provide a standardized identifier so teams can coordinate patching, mitigation, and risk assessment across tools and vendors.
CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System) estimates technical severity, but it doesn't automatically equal business risk. Prioritize using context like internet exposure, affected asset criticality, known exploitation (proof-of-concept or in-the-wild), and whether compensating controls exist. A "Medium" CVSS on an exposed, production system can be more urgent than a "Critical" on an isolated, non-production host.
A vulnerability is the underlying weakness. An exploit is the method or code used to take advantage of it. A zero-day is a vulnerability that is unknown to the vendor or has no publicly available fix when attackers begin using it. In practice, risk increases sharply when exploitation becomes reliable or widespread.
Recurring findings usually come from incomplete Asset Discovery, inconsistent patch management, inherited images, and configuration drift. In modern environments, you also need to watch the software supply chain: dependencies, containers, build pipelines, and third-party services can reintroduce the same weakness even after you patch a single host. Unknown or unmanaged assets (often called Shadow IT) are a common reason the same issues resurface.
Use a simple, repeatable triage model: focus first on externally exposed assets, high-value systems (identity, VPN, email, production), vulnerabilities with known exploits, and issues that enable remote code execution or privilege escalation. Then enforce patch SLAs and track progress using consistent metrics so remediation is steady, not reactive.
SynScan combines attack surface monitoring and continuous security auditing to keep your inventory current, flag high-impact vulnerabilities early, and help you turn raw findings into a practical remediation plan.
