KB5087053 patches two CVEs across .NET 8.0, 9.0, and 10.0 on Windows, with the more serious rated High at CVSS 7.3. Anyone running .NET applications or hosting .NET workloads on these runtime versions is exposed, though EPSS sits at only 1% and neither CVE is in CISA KEV or linked to ransomware. The spread across three supported .NET generations means most Windows estates with .NET installed will need this rather than a niche subset.
Do this: Inventory which .NET 8.0, 9.0, and 10.0 runtimes and SDKs are installed on your Windows servers and workstations, then deploy KB5087053 to those hosts.
