Senserva AI Opinion for KB5042529
KB5042529 patches CVE-2024-38225, a High severity flaw (CVSS 8.8) affecting Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central across the 2023 Release Wave 1, 2023 Release Wave 2, and 2024 Release Wave 1 branches. Exposure is limited to organizations running these specific Business Central versions, and while the CVSS score is significant, the EPSS is only 1 percent with no CISA KEV listing or ransomware link. This matters because the vulnerability spans three concurrent release waves, so you likely need to confirm which branch each of your environments is on before patching.
Do this: Identify which Business Central release wave each of your Dynamics 365 environments runs and apply KB5042529 to any on the 2023 Wave 1, 2023 Wave 2, or 2024 Wave 1 branches.
