On a related note, I would recommend readers using the affected .NET 8/9 runtime in containerized applications to consider rebuilding their container images using the patched base images and redeploy them. Unlike Azure App Service, the .NET runtime is embedded within container images and is not automatically patched by Microsoft's platform updates. It has to be rebuild and redeploy to receive security fixes.

I also agree, it should be patched anyway, but the 9.9 score is somewhat misleading here ..... I think Microsoft is scoring the theoretical maximum impact across all possible ASP.NET Core applications, not the vulnerability in isolation. Most production deployments behind modern proxies like nginx, Cloudflare, AWS ALB etc., are likely already protected. Because these proxies reject the malformed chunked encoding that Kestrel was incorrectly accepting. The real risk is for apps directly exposing Kestrel to the internet or using older or misconfigured proxies.
