Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
Improper control of generation of code ('code injection') in Microsoft Dynamics 365 (on-premises) allows an authorized attacker to execute code over a network.

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

Code injection vulnerability in Microsoft Dynamics 365 (on-premises) allows an authorized attacker to inject and execute arbitrary code through improper control of code generation. This critical flaw stems from insufficient input validation or sanitization in Dynamics 365 components, enabling remote code execution over the network by authenticated users.

MitigationApply Microsoft security patches for Dynamics 365 on-premises immediately. Review and harden code execution paths, implement proper input validation, and restrict permissions for authorized users to limit attack surface.

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. Identify deployment type
    Confirm this is Microsoft Dynamics 365 on-premises (not Dynamics 365 Online/Cloud). This vulnerability affects only on-premises deployments.
    Affected if The deployment is Dynamics 365 on-premises; cloud/online deployments are not affected by this specific CVE.
  2. Check installed Dynamics 365 version
    Use Dynamics 365 administrative tools or system information to determine the exact installed version number (for example, check the About page in Dynamics 365 or use PowerShell/Database queries to retrieve version information).
    Affected if The installed version falls within the range >= 9.1 and < 9.1.45.11.
  3. Confirm authenticated user access
    Verify that user authentication is enabled and that users with valid credentials can access the Dynamics 365 environment.
    Affected if The environment allows authenticated user sessions, as this is an authenticated code injection vulnerability.
  4. Assess network exposure
    Determine whether the Dynamics 365 web interface is accessible over the network (internal or external).
    Affected if The Dynamics 365 application is network-accessible, as the vulnerability enables remote code execution.

A user is affected if they run Microsoft Dynamics 365 on-premises with version 9.1 or higher but lower than 9.1.45.11, with network-accessible authenticated access.

Apply Microsoft security patches for Dynamics 365 on-premises immediately. Review and harden code execution paths, implement proper input validation, and restrict permissions for authorized users to limit attack surface.

Recommended fix Moderate confidence

Microsoft Dynamics 365 (on-premises) version 9.1.45.11

  1. Identify current Microsoft Dynamics 365 (on-premises) version by checking the installed version in the Dynamics 365 Installation Manager or Power Platform Admin Center
  2. Schedule a maintenance window for the upgrade
  3. Back up all Dynamics 365 databases and configuration files
  4. Download Microsoft Dynamics 365 version 9.1.45.11 from the Microsoft Lifecycle Portal or Volume Licensing Service Center
  5. Apply the update using the Dynamics 365 Deployment Manager or the applicable update mechanism for your deployment type
  6. Verify the upgrade was successful by checking the version number post-installation
  7. Test critical business workflows to ensure functionality is intact
Caveat Review Microsoft documentation for any configuration or customization changes required between your current version and 9.1.45.11; test extensively in a non-production environment first
