Root Cause Analysis
The vulnerability centers on improper XAML markup validation in WPF components. While explicit patch diffs aren't available, Microsoft's advisory explicitly references XAML source validation fixes. XamlReader.Load
is the canonical XAML parsing method that would require security checks for untrusted input. The medium confidence reflects the lack of direct commit evidence, but aligns with: 1) Vulnerability description mentioning markup processing 2) WPF's XAML processing architecture 3) Patch version increments in WindowsDesktop
packages 4) CWE-20 (input validation) context.
