Microsoft .NET Framework Information Disclosure Vulnerability
CVE-2024-29059 is a security vulnerability in Microsoft .NET Framework, added to CISA KEV on February 4, 2025. Patch priority: Plan to patch.
What it is
Microsoft .NET Framework contains an information disclosure vulnerability that exposes the ObjRef URI to an attacker, ultimately enabling remote code execution.
VulnCheck tracked exploitation 283 days before CISA's KEV listing. VulnCheck's broader catalog of in-the-wild exploitation evidence picked this up before it landed on CISA's formal list. Per-CVE fact about this entry; not a population claim about lead time in general.
Who's affected
Affects anyone running Microsoft .NET Framework. Microsoft products in a small practice typically sit close to credentials, email, or document workflows — treat the patch as in-scope.
What to do
Apply mitigations per vendor instructions or discontinue use of the product if mitigations are unavailable.
If you don't have someone in-house to verify the patch deployed across every endpoint — or you're not sure whether you're affected — that's exactly the kind of triage we do. Book a free 20-minute triage call.
Insurance readiness
Your insurer will ask if this is patched.
Unpatched entries on CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities list are exactly what cyber-insurance carrier questionnaires probe for, and knowing which controls they check is how you keep a renewal from stalling.

Microsoft Exploitability Index (assessed at update release): Exploitation More Likely
This CVE is on CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog. Microsoft's index reflects their release-time forecast, not current observed activity, and is not automatically revised upward when exploitation appears later.
Vendor workaround
No vendor workaround published. Patching is the only fix.
CISA due date
Federal deadline: February 25, 2025. Federal agencies must complete the required action by this date. For private SMBs the deadline is advisory — but treat it as a strong recommendation, especially if you handle regulated data (HIPAA, GLBA, ABA model rules).
EPSS
EPSS score: 98.6% — higher than 100% of all scored CVEs.
EPSS estimates the probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days. Every entry on this site is already confirmed exploited, so read it as relative urgency among the things you still have open, not as permission to wait.
