Affected Packages

The tables list affected package versions and fixed versions. These are independently versioned NuGet packages, not runtime patch versions.

8.0 - standalone packages

Package	Affected version	Patched version
System.Formats.Cbor	>= 8.0.0-0, < 8.0.2	8.0.2

9.0 - standalone packages

Package	Affected version	Patched version
System.Formats.Cbor	>= 9.0.0-0, < 9.0.24	9.0.24

Update 9.0 applications to System.Formats.Cbor 9.0.24; 9.0.23 is not a fix. The fixed 10.0.15 package, which includes a net9.0 target, remains an alternative.

10.0 - standalone packages

Package	Affected version	Patched version
System.Formats.Cbor	>= 10.0.0-0, < 10.0.15	10.0.15

11.0 - standalone packages

Package	Affected version	Patched version
System.Formats.Cbor	>= 11.0.0-0, < 11.0.0	11.0.0

Advisory FAQ

How do I know if I am affected?

Check the application's System.Formats.Cbor package reference against the affected ranges above. Updating only the installed runtime does not update this independently referenced package.

How do I fix the issue?

Update each applicable package reference to its patched version listed above, then rebuild and redeploy the application. Updating only the installed runtime does not update an application's standalone package references.
