Update summary
Fixes 4 CVEs. 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 2017 for x64-based Systems (GDR) has shipped since this one: KB5101346 (2026-07-14). 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.
KB5063760 is an August 2025 GDR update patching four SQL Server flaws across the 2016 SP3, 2017, and 2019 x64 branches, with the worst rated High at CVSS 8.8. Any organization running these older SQL Server versions is exposed, and the mix of SQL injection and elevation of privilege style CVEs (CVE-2025-49758, CVE-2025-53727, CVE-2025-24999, CVE-2025-49759) means an attacker with some database access could escalate. None are in CISA KEV and EPSS peaks at only 2 percent, so this is a plan and patch situation rather than an emergency.
Do this: Identify SQL Server 2016 SP3, 2017, and 2019 x64 instances on the GDR branch and schedule KB5063760 through your standard database patch window.
