CVE-2015-9098 is a critical authentication bypass vulnerability affecting Redgate SQL Monitor versions prior to 3.10 and 4.x before 4.2. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this flaw to gain full access to the Base Monitor, enabling the execution of arbitrary SQL commands on monitored Microsoft SQL Server instances. If the Base Monitor uses SQL admin privileges, this could lead to code execution and full system compromise on the operating system. With a CVSS score of 9.8 (CRITICAL) and an EPSS score indicating higher than 97% of all CVEs, this vulnerability presents a severe risk. While not listed in CISA's KEV catalog, exploit code is publicly available via ExploitDB (EDB-42444), though there is no evidence of active exploitation, Metasploit/Nuclei modules, or significant community discussion or media coverage.
