Check whether my systems are affected by CVE-2026-124703 (Improper Control of Generation of Code in Progress Telerik UI for WPF), using the cve.now data below.

Rules: work read-only. Do not run exploit code, proof-of-concept scripts or scanners that send attack payloads, and do not change any configuration, package, image or deployment. Report findings only.

Affected:
- Progress Software Telerik UI for WPF: from 2026.3.1007, fixed in 2026.4.1110
Fixed versions: 2026.4.1110.
Conditions (all must be true for the bug to be hit):
- Telerik UI for WPF versions prior to 2026.4.1110 are affected. (source: https://www.telerik.com/products/wpf/documentation/knowledge-base/kb-security-improper-control-of-generation-of-code-cve-2026-124703)
Setup: unknown whether the bug needs a non-default feature or setting. Check the advisory.
Attacker needs: local access, no login, a user action.
CISA KEV: CVE-2026-124703 is not listed as of cve.now's last read.
This KEV status is for CVE-2026-124703 only. If you also check another CVE, look up its own KEV status; never assume it from this one.

How to check:
- Installed software: check what is actually running, not what a repo declares. Read the version from each host, container image and Kubernetes node (the binary's version output, the OS package database, image layers), and check whether the conditions above hold there. Distribution packages may carry a backported fix under an older version number; confirm against the distribution's own advisory.

Verify against the linked advisories before concluding, and cite the date you read each one:

Do not conclude an asset is unaffected unless you checked it and the evidence covers both its version and the conditions above. If you could not check something, mark it unknown and say what is missing.
