The update fixes a connection issue that throws “SEC_E_ILLEGAL_MESSAGE” error. Here is the full changelog of update KB5020387 in terms of new features, fixes and improvements.
This non-security update includes quality improvements. Key changes include:
- We address an issue that might affect some types of Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Transport Layer Security (TLS) connections. These connections might have handshake failures. For developers, the affected connections are likely to receive one or more records followed by a partial record with a size of less than 5 bytes within a single input buffer. If the connection fails, your app will receive the error, “SEC_E_ILLEGAL_MESSAGE”.
