Cyber Risks · Cisco Talos

MS-SQL Quickie update

Summary: Cisco Talos (then Sourcefire's VRT) posted a short update on December 24, 2008, noting that Microsoft had that day published security advisory 961040 on an MS-SQL issue. Talos reminded readers it had released detection coverage for the issue on December 9, 2008, spanning SIDs 15127 through 15144.

What's compelling: The gap between Talos's December 9 coverage and Microsoft's December 24 advisory is 15 days in which defenders relying solely on vendor advisories had no official guidance on an MS-SQL issue.
