• CVE-2022-24849: 0.88% estimated exploitation activity in the next 30 days; percentile 59.16 (FIRST EPSS, 2026-11-03). This is a model estimate, not proof of exploitation or customer exposure.

As published by the source; long descriptions are shortened.

Impact Users of versions 9.8.5, 9.8.6, 9.9.0 and previously published prereleases of 10.0.0 who have used either one of the two RequireDisCatSharpDeveloperAttributes or the BaseDiscordClient.LibraryDeveloperTeam have potentially had their bot token sent to a web server not affiliated with Discord. This server is owned and operated by DisCatSharp's development team. The tokens were not logged, yet it is still advisable to reset the tokens of potentially affected bots. Patches 9.9.1 has been released to patch the issue for the current stable release and the current 10.0.0 prereleases are also no longer affected. Workarounds Remove all uses of the two RequireDisCatSharpDeveloperAttributes and all direct calls to BaseDiscordClient.LibraryDeveloperTeam. Details The HttpClient responsible for sending requests to the Discord API was erroneously reused to send requests to our website when DisCatSharp's team members were to be fetched.

# Patch Next advisory brief: CVE-2022-24849

Advisory: Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor in DisCatSharp
IDs: CVE-2022-24849, GHSA-frxg-hf44-q765
Record: https://patchnext.com/advisories/cve-2022-24849 (revision 1, source checked 26 Oct 2026, 16:58 UTC)
Inventory: none attached. This brief comes from a public page and does not say whether any deployment is affected.
Severity: Medium (CVSS 6.5)
Exploitation: no confirmed exploitation recorded. Patch Next confirms exploitation only from CISA KEV.
Vendor response: Vendor fix available; fixed versions by package: discatsharp 9.9.1. A vendor fix does not mean a deployment is fixed.

## Affected components
- NuGet discatsharp: affected >= 9.8.5, < 9.9.1; fixed in 9.9.1

## Suggested inspection (read-only)
- NuGet discatsharp: check the installed version with your package manager.

## Supported action
Upgrade each affected component to a fixed version on its release line. For a transitive dependency, upgrade the parent package or add an override or constraint, then regenerate the lockfile. Redeploy every environment that ran an affected version.

## Required regression checks
- Run the test suite and a production build.
- Exercise the features that depend on discatsharp.
- Repeat the inspection and confirm that only fixed versions remain installed.

## Rollback considerations
- Keep the previous lockfile and deployment artifact. Rolling back reinstates the vulnerable version, so apply any documented mitigation while you fix forward.

## Unresolved questions
- Which deployments run an affected version?
- Exploitation status can change. Check again before lowering the priority.
- Mark the work resolved only after the fixed version is verified in production.

## Sources
