Microsoft WDAC OLE DB provider for SQL Server Remote Code Execution Vulnerability

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · moderate confidence

This is a Remote Code Execution vulnerability in the Windows Data Access Components (WDAC) OLE DB provider for Microsoft SQL Server. The vulnerability allows an attacker to execute arbitrary code on affected systems, likely through malicious SQL queries or specially crafted database connections.

MitigationApply Microsoft security updates for this vulnerability when released. In the interim, restrict network access to SQL Server instances, enforce least-privilege database accounts, and disable the OLE DB provider if not required.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Check Windows version against affected ranges
    Run 'winver' or 'systeminfo' to obtain the installed Windows build number. For Windows 10, look for builds below 10240.20651 (1507), 14393.6981 (1607), 17763.5820 (1809), 19044.4412 (21h2), or 19045.4412 (22h2). For Windows 11, look for builds below 22000.2960 (21h2), 22621.3593 (22h2), or 22631.3593 (23h2).
    Affected if The installed Windows build number falls below any of the listed threshold versions for the corresponding Windows release.
  2. Verify OLE DB provider presence
    Check for the presence of sqloledb.dll or the WDAC OLE DB provider files in the system. Common paths include C:\Windows\System32\ and C:\Windows\SysWOW64\. Use 'Get-ItemProperty' or 'dir' to enumerate these locations.
    Affected if The OLE DB provider DLL files exist on the system and the vulnerable code path is present.
  3. Confirm SQL Server OLE DB connections are in use
    Review SQL Server configuration and application connection strings for the use of 'Provider=SQLOLEDB' or OLE DB connectivity. Check SQL Server error logs and active connections for OLE DB provider usage.
    Affected if SQL Server instances accept OLE DB connections or applications connect using the OLE DB provider.

The system is affected if it runs a Windows version with a build number below the thresholds listed and has the WDAC OLE DB provider enabled or present on the system.

Interim mitigation

Apply Microsoft security updates for this vulnerability when released. In the interim, restrict network access to SQL Server instances, enforce least-privilege database accounts, and disable the OLE DB provider if not required.

Recommended fix High confidence

Install KB5043735 or later cumulative update; fixed builds: Windows 10 1507 (10.0.10240.20651), Windows 10 1607 (10.0.14393.6981), Windows 10 1809 (10.0.17763.5820), Windows 10 21h2 (10.0.19044.4412), Windows 10 22h2 (10.0.19045.4412), Windows 11 21h2 (10.0.22000.2960), Windows 11 22h2 (10.0.22621.3

  1. Open Windows Settings by pressing Win+I
  2. Navigate to Windows Update in the left panel
  3. Click 'Check for updates' to download and install the latest security updates
  4. Alternatively, manually install the specificKB5043735or later cumulative update for your Windows version from the Microsoft Update Catalog
  5. Restart the system when prompted to complete the installation
  6. Verify the installed build number matches or exceeds the fixed version for your Windows release (e.g., Windows 10 22h2 should be 10.0.19045.4412 or higher)
Caveat Standard Windows update risks apply - ensure backups before updating in production environments
