Update summary
Fixes 1 CVE. Most severe CVSS 8.8 (High). EPSS exploit probability up to 1.6%. Among the lower half of tracked Microsoft updates by EPSS exploit probability.
A newer security update for Microsoft SQL Server 2019 for x64-based Systems (GDR) has shipped since this one: KB5077464 (2026-03-10). For cumulative update families the newer package includes these fixes, so installing that one is usually the shorter path. Verify against your own update rings before you skip this package.
This update closes CVE-2024-37334, Severity High at CVSS 8.8, across SQL Server 2019 GDR, SQL Server 2022 GDR, and the Microsoft OLE DB Driver 19 for SQL Server. Because the OLE DB driver is also used by client applications and reporting tools connecting to SQL Server, exposure extends beyond the database servers themselves to any machine with the driver installed. Inventory OLE DB Driver 19 installations separately from the SQL Server instances.
Do this: Update SQL Server 2019 and 2022 GDR instances and separately update any machine with OLE DB Driver 19 installed.
