Hello Telerik Reporting Community,
We have released a new version of Telerik Reporting today, 2024 Q1 (18.0.24.130). Please update your existing installation at your earliest convenience.
You can review the Legacy Installer Vulnerability - Telerik Reporting article to learn more details about why we are recommending customers to update.
To get the new version, take the following steps:
- Go to Downloads | Your Account.
- Select Telerik Reporting.
- Download the msi installer file, run it, and follow the steps to completion.
Notes
As the KB article explains, the issue pertained only to the old installer component, and not Telerik Reporting contained within the installation package. It does not affect any applications you’re using Telerik Reporting with.
If you have a rare situation where you cannot update the PC installed version, there are various ways to keep a project using an older version of reporting even though the PC has a newer version installed.
- NuGet Option: Update your projects to use the Telerik Reporting NuGet packages, instead of local DLLs (see https://docs.telerik.com/reporting/getting-started/installation/installation-approaches#using-nuget-packages).
- Copied Assemblies Option: Copy the older version’s DLLs to the project directory, then update the project references to use the copied assemblies (instead of the assemblies in C:/Program files (x86)/Progress/Telerik Reporting [older version]/)
We highly recommend you open a Technical Support Ticket if you have a complex situation and would like to ask questions before updating the PC’s installed version. You can open a Support Ticket here => https://prgress.co/DevToolsSupport.
