Microsoft Catch 22 RDP Update
by Dave Crozier 22 May '18

22 May '18

Gentlemen, Just had a 1 day full on panic here with the latest May 2018 update from Microsoft for Server 2008 and 2012. All the RDP (Remote desktop) sessions that used to connect now do NOT connect due to a change in the security settings on any client that has the latest Windows Updates. This has caused us real grief as we run multiple remote sessions onto the VM’s on a 3 node cluster. Only one of the nodes on the cluster ran an automatic update along with a few of the VM’s and we found it made RDP access via either HyperV connect or standard RDP impossible: “An Authentication error has occurred The function requested is not supported/ Remote computer xx.xx.xx.xx This could be due to CredSSP encryption oracle remediation. For more information see https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=899990” Nothing to do with oracle at all and all due to M$ updating security settings on a whim so as to mitigate the external code execution threat: “CVE-2018-0886: "A remote code execution vulnerability exists in unpatched versions of CredSSP. An attacker who successfully exploits this vulnerability could relay user credentials to execute code on the target system. Any application that depends on CredSSP for authentication may be vulnerable to this type of attack." The solution, should any of you encounter this error is to update the server as well as the clients the May 2018 update level, not simply the client or the server. Fortunately this was fairly easy as we migrated all the VM’s onto a spare node, upgraded the empty node and then migrated back and then connected to each VM via HyperV connect and did the 2018-05 updates. At one stage we found ourselves unable to HyperV connect or RDP into any servers as our development machines are all updated automatically. Hence we were in a catch 22 situation….. Can’t connect to server in order to update the server, which would allow connection to the very server we couldn’t connect to. Thank god we had a spare cluster to migrate to! All in all a totally wasted day as some of the retrograde updates took over 60 minutes per VM and we have about 20 of them. Oh Joy! Thanks for the ‘heads up’ Mr Microsoft …. Where can I send the bill?

Hi all I have tried every which way (except the right way, obviously) to remove the dead entries from the community pane, and to add my own links as well, but the same ones keep coming back. Any ideas? Thanks Paul Newton
