Vulnerability in ASP.NET Core 6.0 Web API when the library is not directly installed?


I have an ASP.NET Core 6.0 Web API. I have implemented CI/CD to release changes and also integrated a vulnerability scanning tool (tviry) into the project to check for vulnerabilities in the code. Today, I came across a strange vulnerability in a library that is not installed in the project.

To fix the vulnerability, Of course, I can install the updated version (6.0.1), but I am unsure why this issue is being flagged in the code if this library is no longer present. Is it possible that this library, System.Formats.Asn1,System.IO.Packaging,NuGet.Protocol,SortedList is being used internally by the .NET 6.0 framework?

  • Library: System.Formats.Asn1
  • Vulnerability: CVE-2024-38095
  • Severity: HIGH
  • Installed Version: 6.0.0
  • Fixed Version: 6.0.1, 8.0.1

Title: dotnet: DoS when parsing X.509 Content and ObjectIdentifiers
