Authenticated privilege escalation
Published Sep 10, 2024 · Updated Aug 10, 2026
Improper input validation in Microsoft SQL Server allows remote authenticated users to elevate privileges over a network connection. Microsoft has not published the affected component, input, or incorrect validation operation. A low-privileged SQL Server account and network reachability are required; successful exploitation crosses an unspecified privilege boundary.
