CVE-2026-32167
MediumCVSS 6.7Exploitation Probability (EPSS)
Low risk22th percentile - higher than 22% of all known CVEs
Summary
Improper neutralization of special elements in SQL commands (SQL injection) in SQL Server allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
Risk Assessment
An authenticated user could exploit SQL injection to escalate privileges within SQL Server, potentially leading to unauthorized access to data or administrative functions.
Recommendation
Apply available SQL Server security updates and review database account permissions following the principle of least privilege.
