Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.
dbcve checksWork through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.
-
Check if Telerik Reporting is installedQuery the Windows Registry under HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall for entries containing 'Telerik Reporting' or check common installation paths such as C:\Program Files\Telerik or C:\Program Files (x86)\TelerikAffected if No Telerik Reporting installation is found in registry or typical installation directories
-
Identify installed Telerik Reporting versionLocate the Telerik.Reporting.dll file within the installation directory and right-click to view Properties, then inspect the 'File version' or 'Product version' field. Alternatively, check the Uninstall registry key for the DisplayVersion valueAffected if The displayed version is below 18.0.24.130 (for example, 18.0.0.0 through 18.0.24.129)
-
Verify installer component presenceLook for installation executable files such as Telerik_Reporting_*.exe or a Setup/Installer folder within the Telerik Reporting installation directoryAffected if Installer files exist in a directory accessible to non-administrative users
-
Confirm version comparison to vulnerability thresholdCompare the identified version number against the affected range: any version less than 18.0.24.130 is vulnerableAffected if Installed version is 18.0.24.130 or higher - otherwise the environment falls within the vulnerable version range
The environment is affected if Telerik Reporting is installed with any version below 18.0.24.130 and the installer component is accessible to standard users.
