CVE-2002-1138: n/a vulnerability

CVE-2002-1138: Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 and 2000, including Microsoft Data Engine (MSDE) 1.0 and Microsoft Desktop Engine...

Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 and 2000, including Microsoft Data Engine (MSDE) 1.0 and Microsoft Desktop Engine (MSDE) 2000, writes output files for scheduled jobs under its own privileges instead of the entity that launched it, which allows attackers to overwrite system files, aka "Flaw in Output File Handling for Scheduled Jobs."

Security readout for executives and security teams

Older Microsoft SQL Server and MSDE versions can write scheduled-job output files using the database service’s privileges, not the requesting user’s. If abused, this could overwrite important system files. This is legacy technology risk: exposure mainly matters where SQL Server 7.0, SQL Server 2000, MSDE 1.0, or MSDE 2000 still exist. Most modern environments are unlikely to run these products, but embedded MSDE deployments and forgotten legacy servers are plausible. Exposure depends on whether affected SQL/MSDE versions remain installed and whether users can launch or influence scheduled jobs. Treat as high priority only if legacy SQL Server or MSDE remains present. Unsupported database components create avoidable operational risk, especially when they run with elevated service privileges and can affect system files. Mitigation focus: Identify and retire affected SQL Server and MSDE installations.; Apply Microsoft guidance from MS02-056 where systems remain in service.; Restrict who can create, modify, or launch scheduled jobs..
