I don't know if you fixed your issue or not but I guess you should post your workaround at least so others can check it.

I don't fully understand your issue but I had the same exception, but mine was triggered while the client disconnected and server was trying to read the stream (networkStream).

I had a single command for reading

networkstream.Read(mybuffer, 0, mybuffer.length);

As the checked answer suggested I changed that for:

do
{
 byte[] buff = new byte[1];
 networkstream.Read(buff, 0, 1);
 myreceivedbuff.Add(buff);
} while (networkstream.DataAvailable)

this also produced the issue while client disc, so I had to do this

do
{
 byte[] buff = new byte[1];
 try
 {
  networkstream.Read(buff, 0, 1);
 }
 catch(exception ex)
 {
  throw new exception("The dam client disconnected in the middle of a transaction.");
 }
 myreceivedbuff.Add(buff);
} while (networksteam.DataAvailable)

I had to do this since it doesn't matter if its on a client or a server the exception is the same. host disconnection meanwhile my exception was CLIENT disconnection and this generic message misguided me to the solution.

Sorry if the code is not pasted from vs but I typed here so fix the capitalization so it can compile.

Hope this helps someone.
