CVE-2024-28939Network attack vector

Remote code execution via undisclosed driver flaw

Published Apr 9, 2024 · Updated May 3, 2025

Remote code execution in affected Microsoft OLE DB Driver for SQL Server releases allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. Microsoft identifies error-message information exposure as the weakness but has not published the affected routine, crafted input, or wrong operation that yields execution. Exploitation requires user interaction, and successful code runs with the privileges of the application using the driver.
