If the Base Monitor is connecting to these machines using an account with SQL admin privileges, then code execution on the operating system can result in full system compromise (if Microsoft SQL Server is running with local administrator privileges).","published":"2017-06-22T19:29:00.000Z","lastModified":"2026-06-17T00:35:48.000Z","status":"Modified","sourceIdentifier":"cve@mitre.org","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":9.8,"severity":"CRITICAL","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-89"],"affected":["red-gate/sql monitor"],"epss":{"score":0.14074,"percentile":0.96575,"date":"2026-11-04","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":1,"verified":false,"firstPublished":"2017-08-10","source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[{"edbId":42444,"kind":"exploit","title":"Red-Gate SQL Monitor < 3.10 / 4.2 - Authentication Bypass","url":"https://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/42444","sourceUrl":"https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb/-/blob/main/exploits/windows/webapps/42444.txt","file":"exploits/windows/webapps/42444.txt","published":"2017-08-10","added":"2017-08-10","updated":"2017-08-14","author":"Paul Taylor","type":"webapps","platform":"windows","port":null,"verified":false,"codes":["CVE-2015-9098"],"tags":null,"aliases":null,"applicationUrl":"http://www.exploit-db.comSQLMonitorWeb.exe","screenshotUrl":null,"referenceUrl":null}]},"verdict":{"level":"urgent","text":"EPSS puts the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days at 14.1%, higher than 97% of all known CVEs.
