CVE-2019-0941
Status: ModifiedMedium (4.4)—
A denial of service exists in Microsoft IIS Server when the optional request filtering feature improperly handles requests.

To exploit this vulnerability, an attacker could send a specially crafted request to a page utilizing request filtering. The update addresses the vulnerability by changing the way certain requests are processed by the filter.
