+### Summary
+
+A security vulnerability has been discovered in Qdrant affecting all versions
+prior to v1.9, described in [CVE-2024-3829](https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2024-3829).
+The vulnerability allows an attacker to upload arbitrary files to the
+filesystem, which can be used to gain remote code execution. This is a different but similar vulnerability to CVE-2024-2221, announced in April 2024.
+
+The vulnerability does not materially affect Qdrant cloud deployments, as that
+filesystem is read-only and authentication is enabled by default. At worst,
+the vulnerability could be used by an authenticated user to crash a cluster,
+which is already possible, such as by uploading more vectors than can fit in RAM.
+
+Qdrant has addressed the vulnerability in v1.9.0 and above with code that
+restricts file uploads to a folder dedicated to that purpose.
+
+### Action
+
+Check the current version of your Qdrant deployment. Upgrade if your deployment
+is not at least v1.9.0.
+
+To confirm the version of your Qdrant deployment in the cloud or on your local
+or cloud system, run an API GET call, as described in the [Qdrant Quickstart
+guide](https://qdrant.tech/documentation/cloud/quickstart-cloud/#step-2-test-cluster-access).
+If your Qdrant deployment is local, you do not need an API key.
+
+Your next step depends on how you installed Qdrant. For details, read the
+[Qdrant Installation](https://qdrant.tech/documentation/guides/installation/)
+guide.
+
+#### If you use the Qdrant container or binary
+
+Upgrade your deployment. Run the commands in the applicable section of the
+[Qdrant Installation](https://qdrant.tech/documentation/guides/installation/)
+guide. The default commands automatically pull the latest version of Qdrant.
+
+#### If you use the Qdrant helm chart
+
+If you’ve set up Qdrant on kubernetes using a helm chart, follow the README in
+the [qdrant-helm](https://github.com/qdrant/qdrant-helm/tree/main?tab=readme-ov-file#upgrading) repository.
+Make sure applicable configuration files point to version v1.9.0 or above.
+
+#### If you use the Qdrant cloud
+
+No action is required. This vulnerability does not materially affect you. However, we suggest that you upgrade your cloud deployment to the latest version.
