• Microsoft re-releases buggy July .NET Security Only patches

    Posted on October 13, 2020 at 21:17 CDT by • Comment in the Forums

    Microsoft just announced that it has re-issued the buggy July .NET Security Only patches identified as CVE–2020-1147, and covering a gazillion different KBs. Okay, I overspoke. Maybe half a gazillion.

    The bug? Ahem:

    After you apply this update, some applications experience a TypeInitializationException exception when they try to deserialize System.Data.DataSet or System.Data.DataTable instances from the XML within a SQL CLR stored procedure.

    You had to ask.

    Anyway, if you see a .NET patch from July suddenly appear in October, you need to install it, and now you know why.

    UPDATE: @PKCano has the gory details – including KB numbers for the re-released Security Only patches for Win7 and Server 2008 R2 – posted here.
