Original Release date: 25 Jul 2017 | Last revised: 25 Jul 2017

Overview

The Telerik Web UI, versions R2 2017 (2017.2.503) and prior, is vulnerable to a cryptographic weakness which an attacker can exploit to extract encryption keys.

Description

CWE-326: Inadequate Encryption Strength - CVE-2017-9248

The Telerik.Web.UI.dll is vulnerable to a cryptographic weakness which allows the attacker to extract the Telerik.Web.UI.DialogParametersEncryptionKey and/or the MachineKey.
Versions R2 2017 (2017.2.503) and prior are vulnerable.
