Senserva AI Opinion for CVE-2024-35272
This one stands apart from the rest of the Native Client OLE DB batch: the affected products are Visual Studio 2017, 2019, and 2022, which bundle the vulnerable provider for their data tooling. That puts developer workstations in scope, and a developer connecting an IDE to an untrusted database is a plausible everyday event. CVSS 8.8, EPSS 2 percent, no confirmed exploitation.
Do this: Push the Visual Studio 2017, 2019, and 2022 updates through your developer workstation patch ring.
