http sys regression
About this tag
The http sys regression tag covers ongoing issues with the Windows kernel-mode HTTP stack (HTTP.sys) introduced by the October 2025 cumulative update KB5066835 for Windows 11. This regression causes connection resets for applications that rely on the OS kernel HTTP stack, including IIS sites, developer toolchains, and embedded local web servers. Microsoft acknowledged the problem but did not immediately patch it, leaving affected services in limbo. The tag includes discussion of the regression's impact, workarounds, and Microsoft's response, as well as broader context from the same update that also caused WinRE USB input loss (later fixed via out-of-band update KB5070773).
