📋 Description

According to the CVSS metric, the attack vector is local (AV:L). Why does the CVE title indicate that this is a remote code execution? The word Remote in the title refers to the location of the attacker. This type of exploit is sometimes referred to as Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The attack itself is carried out locally. For example, when the score indicates that the Attack Vector is Local and User Interaction is Required, this could describe an exploit in which an attacker, through social engineering, convinces a victim to download and open a specially crafted file from a website which leads to a local attack on their computer.

If I normally install GDR versions and have not installed the June Cumulative Update, am I affected by the vulnerability? Yes, customers who have installed Microsoft SQL Server 2022 for x64-based Systems (GDR) or Microsoft SQL Server 2019 for x64-based Systems (GDR) are vulnerable. Microsoft recommends updating to the latest cumulative update to be protected from this vulnerability.
