Vulnerability Details CVE-2026-105242
Improper Handling of Exceptional Conditions vulnerability in the aspnet-request pattern converter of Apache log4net.
Reading request parameters triggers ASP.NET request validation, so a request carrying content such as markup made the layout throw and the appender discarded the whole event. A sender could suppress the log record of their own request. Only applications on ASP.NET for .NET Framework whose layout uses %aspnet-request are affected.
This issue affects Apache log4net: from 1.2.11 before 3.5.0.
Users are recommended to upgrade to version 3.5.0, which fixes the issue.
