Summary

This security update resolves a vulnerability in the Microsoft .NET Framework. The vulnerability could cause information disclosure if an attacker injects unencrypted data in the target secure channel and then performs a man-in-the-middle (MiTM) attack between the targeted client and a legitimate server. To learn more about the vulnerability, see Microsoft Security Bulletin MS16-065.
