Discussion

Microsoft SQL Server / MSDE Named Pipes Privilege Escalation Vulnerability

Microsoft SQL Server and the Microsoft Data Engine have been reported prone to a privilege escalation vulnerability via named pipes.

It has been reported that a named pipe used to control certain connection attempts to the SQL server is prone to a vulnerability that may provide for the escalation of privileges.

If successful, a local attacker may seize control of the named pipe and thereby inherit the permissions of a user who is attempting to connect to the SQL server.
