About this tag
Compromised websites are frequently cited in Microsoft security bulletins as a vector for exploiting vulnerabilities in Windows, .NET Framework, ASP.NET MVC, and other Microsoft products. Attackers can host specially crafted content on compromised sites or sites that accept user-provided content, leading to denial of service, remote code execution, security feature bypass, or information disclosure. Users are advised to apply security updates promptly and avoid untrusted sources, such as bootleg software, which may contain malware or be distributed via compromised websites.
