SQL Server 2000 and 2005 - Recommended Builds - (another) update

  • Article

 

Latest Microsoft Security Bulletin (MS08-052 - Vulnerabilities in GDI+ Could Allow Remote Code Execution) changes once again Microsoft recommended builds for SQL Server  as follows:

 

  • SQL 2000 is not touched from the Security Update, so minimum build remains 2273
  • SQL 2000 Reporting Services minimum build is now SP2 + KB954609 which will take your instance to 1062
  • SQL 2005 minimum build is now SP2 + KB954606 for GDR implementations, which will take your instance to 3073 and SP2+ KB954607 for QFE implementations, which will take your instance to 3282.

 

As usual, to not get lost in the build numbers world, I recommend to refer to this  useful website: https://www.sqlsecurity.com/FAQs/SQLServerVersionDatabase/tabid/63/Default.aspx
