An information disclosure vulnerability exists in Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services when it improperly enforces metadata permissions. An attacker who successfully exploited the vulnerability could query tables or columns for which they do not have access rights. To exploit this vulnerability, an authenticated attacker would need to submit a query to an affected Analysis Services database. The security update addresses the vulnerability by correcting how SQL Server Analysis Services enforces permissions.
