MAUI and ASP.NET Core ship critical fixes

By RepoJournal · Filed · About .NET

Two landmines cleared: MAUI's Android screenshot deadlock and ASP.NET Core's chunked encoding parsing.

The .NET MAUI team fixed a deadlock in Screenshot.CaptureAsync on Android for synchronous UI-thread callers, a regression introduced when the renderer switched from synchronous Canvas rendering to asynchronous Pixel copy [1]. ASP.NET Core hardened its chunked encoding parsing to address a security issue (CVE pending) and added metrics and logging for chunked extensions [2]. The same developer, Youssef Fahmy, also fixed JsonPatch to adhere to RFC and stop dropping empty reference tokens [3]. In the runtime, MemoryCache now forbids changing an entry's size after disposal, preventing permanent total drift [4]. The SDK now resolves analyzers from the analyzers group in project.assets.json, a change that will make builds faster and more accurate [5]. Blazor Identity now uses SignalR authentication refresh for better security [6].
