Re: Root certificate changes

Hi there 

You’re absolutely right to double-check this — Dropbox recently updated their SDKs due to changes in certificate trust stores, but the impact depends on how your app handles certificate pinning.

If your .NET app does not call Dropbox Cert Helper. Initialize Cert Pinning(), then you’re not affected by this change. The issue only impacts apps that manually initialize the older certificate pinning logic.

So as long as:

You’re using a Dropbox .NET SDK (even below v7.0.0), and

You don’t call Dropbox Cert Helper. Initialize Cert Pinning() anywhere in your code,

then you’re completely safe — there’s no urgent need to update before January. 

Still, it’s good practice to plan an SDK update when possible to stay aligned with Dropbox’s latest security improvements and bug fixes.

Hope that clears things up!
