CVE-2024-4200
Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.
NVD · uneditedIn Progress® Telerik® Reporting versions prior to 2024 Q2 (18.1.24.2.514), a code execution attack is possible by a local threat actor through an insecure deserialization vulnerability.
Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.
dbcve analysis · high confidenceTelerik Reporting versions prior to 2024 Q2 (18.1.24.2.514) contain an insecure deserialization vulnerability that allows a local attacker to execute arbitrary code by manipulating serialized data processed by the reporting application.

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.
-
Identify Telerik Reporting installation pathLocate the Telerik.Reporting.dll file in the application bin directory or installation folder (commonly in C:\Program Files\Telerik\Reporting or within the application's /bin folder)Affected if The DLL is present in the environment
-
Determine installed Telerik Reporting versionRight-click Telerik.Reporting.dll, select Properties, and check the 'File version' or 'Product version' field under the Details tab. Alternatively, run: [System.Diagnostics.FileVersionInfo]::GetVersionInfo('path\to\Telerik.Reporting.dll') in PowerShellAffected if The version shown is earlier than 18.1.24.514 (for example, 18.1.24.2, 17.2.23.0, etc.)
-
Verify if application processes serialized dataReview the application configuration (web.config or app.config) for Telerik Reporting handlers and serializers. Check for use of Telerik Report Viewer, ReportDesigner, or custom code that deserializes Report objects or report definitionsAffected if The application uses report serialization/deserialization features, which is standard for Telerik Reporting implementations
-
Check for local access exposureReview network binding configuration and authentication settings. Ensure the reporting service is not exposed to untrusted local usersAffected if The server allows local untrusted user access to the reporting service endpoint
You are affected if Telerik Reporting version is below 18.1.24.514 AND the application processes serialized report data, as the insecure deserialization flaw can be exploited locally.
Generated from the published advisory. Verify against your own configuration.
Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scoped18.1.24.514
Upgrade to Telerik Reporting version 2024 Q2 (18.1.24.2.514) or later. As a defense-in-depth measure, restrict local access to the server and ensure proper authentication is in place.
18.1.24.514 (2024 Q2)
- 1. Identify the current installed version of Telerik Reporting in your environment
- 2. Download Telerik Reporting version 18.1.24.514 (2024 Q2) or later from the official Telerik website or your licensed distribution channel
- 3. Review the official upgrade documentation at docs.telerik.com for version-specific migration instructions
- 4. Create a complete backup of your current Telerik Reporting configuration, databases, and report definitions
- 5. Test the upgrade in a non-production environment before deploying to production
- 6. Deploy the upgraded version to your production environment following standard deployment procedures
- 7. Verify that Telerik Reporting services start successfully and reports render correctly
- 8. Monitor for any errors or unexpected behavior following the upgrade
