Security Updates for Microsoft SQL Server OLE DB Driver (July 2024)

high Nessus Plugin ID 205300

Language:

Synopsis

The Microsoft SQL Server OLE DB Driver installed on the remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The Microsoft SQL Server OLE DB Driver installed on the remote host is missing a security update. It is, therefore, affected by a remote code execution vulnerability. An attacker could exploit the vulnerability by tricking an authenticated user (UI:R) into attempting to connect to a malicious SQL server database via a connection driver. This could result in the database returning malicious data that could cause arbitrary code execution on the client.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Microsoft has released security updates for the Microsoft SQL OLE DB Driver.
