I've been using the main DNN website Security Center to check and verify our versions of DNN to see if we needed to upgrade for security reasons.  

DNN Security Updates | DNN (DotNetNuke) (dnnsoftware.com)

However, that page's content does not appear to have been updated since DNN 9.7.2 so I've been going under the bad assumption there were no security updates.  Is there a new location for this information or can that page begin to be updated again?

And, yes, it is a little light.

Thank you for the link.  Since both websites don't have any info about it, are there any resolved security items between 9.7.0 and 9.9.0?

It is my understanding that upgradeing to DNN 9.8.0 AND removing the Telerik libraries resolves the known vulnerabilities at that point.

Removal of Telerik libraries is optional in 9.8.0 with instructions provided in the release notes. DNN 10 will remove Telerik by default.

There are tools available to check modules for Telerik dependencies.
