Advisory FAQ
How do I know if I am affected?
If you have a runtime or SDK with a version listed, or an affected package listed in affected software, you're exposed to the vulnerability.
How do I fix the issue?
To fix the issue please install the latest version of .NET 6.0 or .NET Core 3.1. 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.
If you have .NET Core 3.1 or greater installed, you can list the versions you have installed by running the dotnet --info command. You will see output like the following;
.NET Core SDK (reflecting any global.json):
Version: 6.0.300
Commit: 8473146e7d
Runtime Environment:
OS Name: Windows
OS Version: 10.0.18363
OS Platform: Windows
RID: win10-x64
Base Path: C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\6.0.300\
Host (useful for support):
Version: 6.0.5
Commit: 8473146e7d
.NET Core SDKs installed:
6.0.300 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk]
.NET Core runtimes installed:
Microsoft.AspNetCore.App 6.0.5 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.AspNetCore.App]
Microsoft.NETCore.App 6.0.5 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.NETCore.App]
Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App 6.0.5 [C:\Program Files\dotnet\shared\Microsoft.WindowsDesktop.App]
To install additional .NET Core runtimes or SDKs:
https://aka.ms/dotnet-download
- If you're using .NET 6.0, you should download and install Runtime 6.0.8 or SDK 6.0.108 (for Visual Studio 2022 v17.1) from https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/6.0.
- If you're using .NET Core 3.1, you should download and install Runtime 3.1.28 (for Visual Studio 2019 v16.9) from https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/3.1.
.NET 6.0 and .NET Core 3.1 updates are also available from Microsoft Update. To access this either type "Check for updates" in your Windows search, or open Settings, choose Update & Security and then click Check for Updates.
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 targeting any of the impacted versions, these applications are also vulnerable and must be recompiled and redeployed.

Last Updated 2022-08-08
Release notes reference CVE-2022-37416 rather than CVE-2022-34716:
- https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/3.1/3.1.28/3.1.28.md
- https://github.com/dotnet/core/blob/main/release-notes/6.0/6.0.8/6.0.8.md
as of commit 036d7ee6d81d3ed69acd96fc57ae8d16b300f1ca.
Has the CVE been posted yet? The cve.org link returns "CVE-2022-34716 not found.", and this page is completely details free, so there doesn't seem to be a way to evaluate severity. Also, just saying that referencing libraries makes one vulnerable is highly unlikely, so more specific details about what is necessary to be vulnerable would be much appreciated in the future.
There's usually a small lag whilst it percolates through MITRE.
For reference it'll be CVSS:3.1 Base Score 7.0 / Temporal Score 6.1
It would take a blind XXE to pull off
