This advisory also provides guidance on what developers can do to update their applications to remove this vulnerability. Various vulnerabilities in MsQuic are addressed by an updated native-binary dependency update. ## Announcement Announcement for this issue can be found at https://github.com/dotnet/announcements/issues/470 ## CVSS Details - **Version:** 3.1 - **Severity:** Moderate - **Score:** 5.9 - **Vector:** `CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N` - **Weakness:** CWE-416 (Use After Free) ## Affected Platforms - **Platforms:** Windows - **Architectures:** All ## <a name="affected-packages"></a>Affected Packages The vulnerability affects Microsoft .NET projects that use an affected package version listed below. Package name | Affected version | Patched version ------------ | ---------------- | --------------- [Microsoft.Native.Quic.MsQuic.Schannel](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Native.Quic.MsQuic.Schannel) | >= 1.9.0, < 2.5.12 | 2.5.12 [Microsoft.Native.Quic.MsQuic.Schannel](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Native.Quic.MsQuic.Schannel) | >= 2.6.0, < 2.6.3 | 2.6.3 ## Advisory FAQ ### <a name="how-affected"></a>How do I know if I am affected? If using a package listed in [affected packages](#affected-packages), you're exposed to the vulnerability. ### <a name="how-fix"></a>How do I fix the issue? 1. To fix the issue please install the latest version of .NET. 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. 2. If your application references the vulnerable package, update the package reference to the patched version. You can list the versions you have installed by running the `dotnet --info` command. 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](https://docs.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/deploying/#self-contained-deployments-scd) targeting any of the impacted versions, these applications are also vulnerable and must be recompiled and redeployed. ## Other Information ### Reporting Security Issues If you have found a potential security issue in a supported version of .NET, please report it to the Microsoft Security Response Center (MSRC) via the [MSRC Researcher Portal](https://msrc.microsoft.com/report/vulnerability/new). Further information can be found in the MSRC [Report an Issue FAQ](https://www.microsoft.com/msrc/faqs-report-an-issue). Security reports made through MSRC may qualify for the Microsoft .NET Bounty. Details of the Microsoft .NET Bounty Program including terms and conditions are at https://aka.ms/corebounty. ### Support You can ask questions about this issue on GitHub in the .NET GitHub organization. The main repos are located at https://github.com/dotnet/runtime. The Announcements repo (https://github.com/dotnet/Announcements) will contain this bulletin as an issue and will include a link to a discussion issue.
