Date Discovered

Description
Microsoft has released a security bulletin reporting multiple vulnerabilities in Microsoft SQL Server.

The first of these issues is a buffer overflow in SQL Server user authentication. It is possible to corrupt memory with a malformed login request. This may enable an attacker to execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the SQL Server process. Malformed login requests may also cause a denial of service. It is possible to trigger this condition prior to authenticating with the server. This issue affects Microsoft SQL Server 2000 and Microsoft Desktop Engine (MSDE) 2000.
