KB5055687: Overview with user sentiment and feedback

Overview

This is a Security and Quality Rollup update for .NET Framework versions 2.0, 3.0, 3.5 SP1, and 4.6.2 running on Windows Server 2008 SP2. The update is part of the April 8, 2025 release and includes previously released security improvements from October 8, 2024.

This is a cumulative update that contains all previously released security improvements. The update is focused on maintaining system security and stability for older .NET Framework versions running on Windows Server 2008 SP2.

General Purpose

The primary purpose of this update is to provide ongoing security maintenance and quality improvements for .NET Framework installations on Windows Server 2008 SP2 systems. While there are no new security improvements in this specific release, it serves as a cumulative package that ensures systems have all previously released security updates installed. This is particularly important for systems running in extended support, as they rely on these monthly security rollups to maintain their security posture.

General Sentiment

The general sentiment towards this update appears positive as it is a standard maintenance release with no new security vulnerabilities being addressed and no known issues reported. Microsoft has indicated that this is a routine cumulative update, suggesting it should be stable for deployment. However, as this affects multiple versions of the .NET Framework on an older operating system, careful testing in a controlled environment before widespread deployment would be prudent.

Known Issues

• Microsoft is not currently aware of any issues in this update
