Description
Hello,
I am currently using your DLL, version 2016.1.0, in my project. After running a security scan using Veracode, I found some issues flagged in that version:
- Cleartext Storage of Sensitive Information in Memory (CWE ID 316)
- Use of a Broken or Risky Cryptographic Algorithm (CWE ID 327)
- Improper Restriction of XML External Entity Reference (CWE ID 611)
- Unintended Proxy or Intermediary ('Confused Deputy') (CWE ID 441)
I have since downloaded and installed the version 2025.0.0 of the DLL. Before proceeding with deployment, I would like to confirm:
Is the security issue identified in version 2016.1.0 addressed in this release?
Has the version 2025.0.0 of the DLL undergone any additional security review or updates to mitigate these findings?
Please let me know if you need any additional details from my side.
Thank you in advance for your help.
