Microsoft Outlook Application Crash due to UCRTBASE.DLL

Afraid not, it may be similar issue with another security platform.  Check your AV, perhaps disable for a period to test.  For the majority on this threat, Sophos Exploit Mitigation was the cause, but we dont have a common 3rd party app that links it all.

Hello GD.

I do not have the software Sophos,Do you know another solution to the problem of crashes?

Thank you

Latest from Sophos, has moved to Dev team.  Should be fixed globally now without needing the exploit mitigation disabled.

We've identified an issue with a new DCOMLockdown mitigation technique that is part of Intercept X protections, which wecurrently test, that could cause Outlook to crash, logging the following entryin the application Eventlog:

Error    19.01.2021 17:29:39    ApplicationError    1000    (100)
Faulting application name: OUTLOOK.EXE, version: 16.0.13530.20376, time stamp:0x5ffa7614
Faulting module name: ucrtbase.dll, version: 10.0.19041.546, time stamp:0x43cbc11d
Exception code: 0xc0000409
Fault offset: 0x000000000007287e
Faulting process id: 0x6d24
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\root\Office16\OUTLOOK.EXE
Faulting module path: C:\WINDOWS\System32\ucrtbase.dll

Due to the low number of Support Cases we received on the reported issue, wesuspect the crashes to be influenced by another third party application (likean Outlook Add-in), which is currently under investigation by our DevelopmentTeams.

We are going to mitigate the reported issue by disabling the new DCOM Lockdowntechnique globally until we understood what exactly triggered themitigation/crash and have a fix for it in place. This DCOM Lockdownmitigation is a sub-mitigation of the Lockdown family that has not yet beenofficially announced/release and we will only disable this sub-mitigation. Allother Lockdown mitigations will remain active.

All of your Endpoints should receive the today. Once the Endpoints received theupdate, the following registry keys should switch to 0:

"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Sophos EndpointDefense\EndpointFlags"
"hmpa.lockdownmemory.v2.enforce"="0"
"hmpa.lockdownmemory.v2.silent"="0"

We recommend to ensure to remove any Exploit Mitigaiton Exclusions forOutlook.exe that had been set while the issue was present. Also, the ThreatProtection policy setting 'Protect office applications' should be kept enabledto retain full protection.

Your issue has been escalated to our development team with the above referencenumber. Issues are prioritised based on severity and customer impact. Iwill get back to you with an update on the investigation process by February9th or earlier if Development shares any feedback.

Assuming you are using Sophos, you can add the exceptions listed previously in this thread - OR - try removing the "Insights" add-in from Outlook.  I had 4 workstations crashing due to the problem in this thread and removing Insights addon fixed all 4 w/o having to add the exceptions to Sophos.

Thanks for answering, I do not have an "Insights" plugin.
And I do not have a Sophos system.
Do you have any more solutions?
