It was discovered that .NET did not properly handle memory in it's

Double Parse routine. An attacker could possibly use this issue to

achieve remote code execution. (CVE-2024-30045)

It was discovered that .NET did not properly handle the usage of a

shared resource. An attacker could possibly use this to cause a dead-lock

condition, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2024-30046)
