Advisory FAQ

How do I know if I am affected?

If you have a runtime or SDK with a version listed, or an affected package listed in affected software or affected packages, you're exposed to the vulnerability.

How do I fix the issue?

To fix the issue please install the latest version of .NET 8.0 or .NET 7.0 or .NET 6.0. If you have installed one or more .NET SDKs through Visual Studio, Visual Studio will prompt you to update Visual Studio, which will also update your .NET SDKs.
If you have .NET 6.0 or greater installed, you can list the versions you have installed by running the dotnet --info command. You will see output like the following;

.NET Core SDK (reflecting any global.json):

 Version:   8.0.200
 Commit:    8473146e7d

Runtime Environment:

 OS Name:     Windows
 OS Version:  10.0.18363
 OS Platform: Windows
 RID:         win10-x64
 Base Path:   C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\6.0.300\

Host (useful for support):

  Version: 8.0.3
  Commit:  8473146e7d

.NET Core SDKs installed:

  8.0.200 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk]

.NET Core runtimes installed:

  Microsoft.AspNetCore.App 8.0.3 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.AspNetCore.App]
  Microsoft.NETCore.App 8.0.3 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App]
  Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App 8.0.3 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App]

To install additional .NET Core runtimes or SDKs:
  https://aka.ms/dotnet-download

If you're using .NET 8.0, you should download and install .NET 8.0.5 Runtime or .NET 8.0.105 SDK (for Visual Studio 2022 v17.8) from https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/8.0.
If you're using .NET 7.0, you should download and install Runtime 7.0.19 or SDK 7.0.119 (for Visual Studio 2022 v17.4) from https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/7.0.

.NET 7.0 and, .NET 8.0 updates are also available from Microsoft Update. To access this either type "Check for updates" in your Windows search, or open Settings, choose Update & Security and then click Check for Updates.

Once you have installed the updated runtime or SDK, restart your apps for the update to take effect.

Additionally, if you've deployed self-contained applications targeting any of the impacted versions, these applications are also vulnerable and must be recompiled and redeployed.

Although all publicly available information lists only .NET 7.0 and 8.0 versions as affected (and some Visual Studio versions), somehow this CVE is now plastered all over the listed NuGet package versions e.g. for .NET 6.0 (see e.g., here) and various scanners including e.g., Microsoft Defender for Containers are now reporting this CVE against the .NET 6.0.30 runtime (e.g., for Microsoft-issued images like mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/runtime:6.0.30-jammy-amd64 we use, among others), i.e., the latest one, so as per the "How do I fix the issue?" section. Who thought, that listing everything "at and below 7.0.18", instead of e.g., "between 7.0.0-preview.1 and 7.0.18" is a good idea? Unless .NET 6.0 is also affected, but somehow not mentioned and/or not patched (although a patch release for .NET 6.0 was released at the same time as for 7.0 and 8.0).

hI @hilari0n , my sincere apologies for this. We have corrected our advisories to reflect correct versions of .NET 7 and .NET 8 impacted

is the PR/commit fixing this issue available? I'm interested how a buffer overflow could sneak into managed/safe code.

vladd commented 4 months ago

@fowl2 Perhaps it's this commit: https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/commit/06650b7f1bd158c6c270e6f627a8c90d8eee3836.

hilari0n commented 4 months ago

@fowl2 Perhaps it's this commit: 06650b7.

The CVE only mentions 7.0 and 8.0 as affected, while the cause of the commit seems to be #98841, which mentions, that the problem is there since 6.0 (which is not mentioned in the CVE) and does not describe it as a security concern at all. So either this is it, but 6.0 was not yet fixed, or this is not it.
