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 checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify installed Telerik UI for WinForms version
    Check the Telerik UI for WinForms assembly version by inspecting the installed NuGet package (Telerik.WinControls.UI) in the project's packages folder, or examine the compiled assembly version property of any Telerik WinForms DLL in the application's bin directory
    Affected if The installed version is lower than 2024.4.1113 (the format is typically major.minor.build, for example 2024.3.1015 would be affected)
  2. Determine if RadAsyncUpload or serialization features are in use
    Search the codebase for references to RadAsyncUpload, RadUpload, or custom serialization handlers that process serialized objects. Also check if the application accepts uploaded files that get deserialized
    Affected if The application uses Telerik upload controls or any custom deserialization logic that processes untrusted data through Telerik components
  3. Check if Telerik handler configuration is exposed
    Inspect the application's web.config or app.config for Telerik handler registrations. Look for entries under system.web/handlers (IIS integrated mode) or system.web/httpHandlers that reference Telerik.Web.UI.AsyncUploadHandler or similar Telerik handlers
    Affected if Telerik HTTP handlers are registered and accessible, particularly AsyncUpload handlers that process serialized content
  4. Verify network exposure of vulnerable endpoints
    Determine if the application accepts serialized data from remote sources. Check if upload endpoints or web services that utilize Telerik components are accessible from untrusted network locations
    Affected if The application processes serialized objects from remote or untrusted clients through Telerik UI components

The environment is affected if Telerik UI for WinForms version is below 2024.4.1113 AND the application uses Telerik components that handle serialized objects from untrusted sources.

Upgrade available Upgrade to 2024.4.1113 or later
Fixed in 2024.4.1113
Interim mitigation

Upgrade Telerik UI for WinForms to version 2024.4.1113 or later to remediate the insecure deserialization vulnerability.

Recommended fix High confidence

2024.4.1113 (2024 Q4 release or later)

  1. 1. Identify the current Telerik UI for WinForms version in your project by checking the NuGet package reference or the Telerik.WinForms.UI.dll file version
  2. 2. Download Telerik UI for WinForms version 2024.4.1113 or later from the official Telerik website (telerik.com) or update via NuGet package manager
  3. 3. Update the NuGet package reference in your project file (.csproj) or packages.config to use version 2024.4.1113
  4. 4. Run 'dotnet restore' or update packages through Visual Studio NuGet Package Manager
  5. 5. Rebuild the solution to ensure the new Telerik assemblies are referenced
  6. 6. Perform regression testing on all forms and controls that use Telerik UI components, particularly any areas that handle deserialization of data
Caveat Minimal expected; as a patch/minor release within 2024, but conduct regression testing on Telerik UI components
