## TL;DR

Unsure if its related, but I am getting a lot of exceptions regarding.NET SDK installation failures on the dependabot update logs, here's a snip: ``` updater | 2024/03/08 15:49:58 INFO [job_797700327] Latest version is 2.7.

## Steps

1. What was reported:
Issue dependabot/dependabot-core#9249 (closed, 41 comments): > @martincostello Hello, a fix for this went out yesterday #9228 and some people have confirmed it is working as expected. Let us know if it is working for you as well. Thanks. Unsure if its related, but I am getting a lot of exceptions regarding .NET SDK installation failures on the dependabot update logs, here's a snip: ``` updater | 2024/03/08 15:49:58 INFO [job_797700327] Latest version is 2.7.

2. What works:
Dependabot nuget/dotnet updates failing with .NET SDK installation errors: fixed Dependabot-side via #9228 and #9374, and confirmed working by multiple reporters. No action needed on your repo; re-run the failed update. The maintainer closed it as confirmed fixed (using SDK 8.0.203 with no further issues). If it still happens, reactivate the issue.
