Authenticated privilege escalation via undisclosed SQL injection
Published Jul 14, 2026 · Updated Jul 14, 2026
SQL injection in Microsoft SQL Server 2016 SP3 through 2025 allows remote authenticated users to elevate privileges over a network. Microsoft has not disclosed the affected component, input vector, or operation that fails to neutralize SQL metacharacters. A low-privileged SQL Server account and network access are required; exploitation permits actions beyond that account's assigned database privileges.
