Only authorized service broker endpoints should be configured on the server.


Overview

Finding ID Version Rule ID IA Controls Severity
V-15165 DM6128-SQLServer9 SV-23857r2_rule DCFA-1 Medium
Description
Service Broker endpoints expose the database to SQL Server messaging communication access. Where not carefully designed and implemented, messaging communication can unnecessarily expose the database to additional exploit that compromises data confidentiality and integrity. Removing messaging communication endpoints helps to protect the database from unauthorized messaging communication access.
