Recommended fix High confidence

SQL Server 2016: 13.0.6441.1+ | SQL Server 2017: 14.0.2060.1+ or 14.0.3475.1+ | SQL Server 2019: 15.0.2120.1+ or 15.0.4390.2+ | SQL Server 2022: 16.0.1125.1+ or 16.0.4140.3+

  1. 1. Identify the exact SQL Server version currently installed by running `SELECT @@VERSION` in SQL Server Management Studio.
  2. 2. Determine the corresponding SQL Server major version (2016, 2017, 2019, or 2022) from the version number.
  3. 3. Download and install the appropriate Cumulative Update (CU) or Service Pack that contains the fix for CVE-2024-37340 from the Microsoft Security Update Guide: https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/vulnerability/CVE-2024-37340
  4. 4. For SQL Server 2016: Upgrade to version 13.0.6441.1 or later.
  5. 5. For SQL Server 2017: Upgrade to version 14.0.2060.1 or later (first affected range), or version 14.0.3475.1 or later (second affected range).
  6. 6. For SQL Server 2019: Upgrade to version 15.0.2120.1 or later (first affected range), or version 15.0.4390.2 or later (second affected range).
  7. 7. For SQL Server 2022: Upgrade to version 16.0.1125.1 or later (first affected range), or version 16.0.4140.3 or later (second affected range).
  8. 8. Test the upgrade in a non-production environment before deploying to production.
Caveat Standard SQL Server upgrade considerations apply - review compatibility and test applications against the new version before production deployment
