The Microsoft SharePoint team has released specific guidance for a workaround for the recently announced ASP.NET vulnerability (Security Advisory 2416728). With a slight modification, this guidance will also apply to SharePoint 2007.
For SharePoint 2010, the relevant web.config entry will look like:
<customerrors defaultredirect="/_layouts/error2.aspx" mode="On" redirectmode="ResponseRewrite"></customerrors>
While for SharePoint 2007, the web.config entry will read:
<customerrors defaultredirect="/_layouts/error2.aspx" mode="On"></customerrors>
