CVE-2026-54117 is a remote code execution vulnerability in Microsoft SQL Server caused by deserialization of untrusted data. The flaw allows an authorized attacker to send crafted data to a vulnerable SQL Server instance over the network and trigger unsafe deserialization in SQL Server, resulting in attacker-controlled code execution. Available scoring and advisory details indicate low attack complexity, no user interaction requirement, and high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Advisory information also indicates successful exploitation may enable privilege escalation within SQL Server to sysadmin.
