CVE-2026-102870: Microsoft Security Advisory CVE-2026-102870 - ASP.NET Core Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

## Executive summary Microsoft is releasing this security advisory to provide information about a vulnerability in the Blazor WebAssembly debugger included in `Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Server`. This advisory also provides guidance on what developers can do to update their applications to remove this vulnerability. The Blazor WebAssembly debug proxy evaluates debugger expressions by generating and compiling C# source. Certain values originating in the application being debugged, including `ToString()` results, descriptions, and class names, are embedded in that generated source without consistent escaping. An attacker-controlled value can escape the generated string literal and execute code on a developer's machine when the developer evaluates an expression during debugging. ## Announcement Announcement for this issue can be found at https://github.com/dotnet/announcements/issues/445 ## CVSS Details - **Version:** 3.1 - **Severity:** High - **Score:** 8.8 - **Vector:** `CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H` - **Weakness:** CWE-94 (Improper Control of Generation of Code ('Code Injection')) ## Affected Platforms - **Platforms:** Windows, Linux, macOS - **Architectures:** All ## <a name="affected-packages"></a>Affected Packages The vulnerability affects Microsoft .NET projects that use an affected package version listed below.
