Along with this .NET Framework update, there is also an update KB5046732 for 22631.4541 (23H2) available from the Microsoft Update Catalog.

This installs as boringly routine. I have no real idea what wonderful new little marvels it contains (I'm sure Brink will inform us) but I haven't found any obvious drawbacks so far ... I did make a precautionary backup first though.

The DISM health checks plus the sfc scan showed no issues.
