Advisory FAQ

How do I know if I am affected?

Check the deployed runtime and application package versions against the affected ranges above. Self-contained applications include their own runtime; updating a machine-wide runtime does not replace it.

How do I fix the issue?

Install the applicable runtime or update each independently referenced package to the fixed version above. Restart applications. Rebuild and redeploy self-contained applications; updating a machine-wide runtime does not replace their embedded runtime. An SDK update alone does not update an application's standalone package references.
