Hi,

We would like to know if it would be safe to install the SQL security patch of SQL2016 CU15, a similar question was asked previously about CU15, but this question is in regards to the security patch that was released on Jan 12th, 2021.

The KB number is 4583468:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/4583468/kb4583468-microsoft-sql-server-elevation-of-privilege-vulnerability

The system already running SQL Server 2016 SP2 CU2.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

We ran some manual test and also our automatic tests with this new KB from Microsoft.

No issues were found with this KB, so it's safe to install this patch.

Note:
It's best to stop the DMA before installing an update on the MSSQL server.

If you do have any further questions, please do let me know.

Kind regards,

Thibault

Hi,

Thank you for your message.
We'll run the KB on our MSSQL2019 server. As this should be no difference with the MSSQL2016 edition.
The installation is ongoing, we'll run some tests overnight to see if no issues are visible, so we can give you an update on this by tomorrow.

Kind regards,

Thibault
