The end of 2008 is registering many security problems in Microsoft products, after the extraordinary update for Microsoft Internet Explorer - came a few days of patch day of December - a bulletin of security indicates a problem against SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005.
Currently, it is not yet available a patch, but fortunately there are no malicious actions carried out by using this specific problem. In the notes of Microsoft argued are different considerations that lead to a cautious optimism: the problem detected allow code execution on a machine vulnerable working remotely, but fortunately does not seem to be so used by any of malware.
Also in the note circulated by Microsoft indicates that some products - including Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 Service Pack 4, Microsoft SQL Server 2005 SP3 and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 - are immune from the problem.
