A newer security update for ASP.NET Core 8.0 has shipped since this one: KB5081277 (2026-03-10). For cumulative update families the newer package includes these fixes, so installing that one is usually the shorter path. Verify against your own update rings before you skip this package.
This companion package resolves the same CVE-2025-24070 in ASP.NET Core 8.0 and 9.0 as well as Visual Studio 2022 17.12, High severity, CVSS 7.0. Web applications built on ASP.NET Core need the runtime update independent of whether the development machine also gets the Visual Studio fix, so both should be tracked separately. No KEV or ransomware flag applies to this CVE.
Do this: Confirm both ASP.NET Core runtime hosts and developer machines receive KB5054230.
