Technical details
This is an SQL injection (SQLi) vulnerability in Azure SQL Database that allows an authorized attacker to inject malicious SQL commands. The vulnerability stems from improper neutralization of special elements in SQL commands. An attacker with existing database credentials can construct a crafted SQL query to bypass privilege restrictions and escalate their access level. The attack is network-accessible and requires prior authentication; successful exploitation allows privilege escalation within the database environment.
