Server configuration: clr strict security

  • Straipsnis

Applies to: SQL Server

Controls the interpretation of the SAFE, EXTERNAL_ACCESS, or UNSAFE permission in SQL Server. For more information about these permissions, see Designing assemblies.

Value Description
0 Disabled. Provided for backward compatibility. Setting this value to 0 isn't recommended.
1 Enabled. Causes the Database Engine to ignore the PERMISSION_SET information on the assemblies, and always interpret them as UNSAFE. In SQL Server 2017 (14.x) and later versions, 1 is the default value.

Code access security no longer supported

CLR uses Code Access Security (CAS) in the .NET Framework, which is no longer supported as a security boundary. A CLR assembly created with PERMISSION_SET = SAFE might be able to access external system resources, call unmanaged code, and acquire sysadmin privileges. In SQL Server 2017 (14.x) and later versions, clr strict security treats SAFE and EXTERNAL_ACCESS assemblies as if they're marked UNSAFE.

We recommend that you sign all assemblies by a certificate or asymmetric key, with a corresponding login that has been granted UNSAFE ASSEMBLY permission in the master database. SQL Server administrators can also add assemblies to a list of assemblies, which the Database Engine should trust. For more information, see sys.sp_add_trusted_assembly.

Remarks

When enabled, the PERMISSION_SET option in the CREATE ASSEMBLY and ALTER ASSEMBLY statements is ignored at run-time, but the PERMISSION_SET options are preserved in metadata. Ignoring this option minimizes breaking existing code statements.

CLR strict security is an advanced option.

After you enable strict security, any assemblies that aren't signed fail to load. You must either alter or drop and recreate each assembly so that it's signed with a certificate or asymmetric key that has a corresponding login with the UNSAFE ASSEMBLY permission on the server.

Permissions

Change this option

Requires CONTROL SERVER permission, or membership in the sysadmin fixed server role.

Create a CLR assembly

The following permissions required to create a CLR assembly when CLR strict security is enabled:

  • The user must have the CREATE ASSEMBLY permission

  • One of the following conditions must also be true:

    • The assembly is signed with a certificate or asymmetric key that has a corresponding login with the UNSAFE ASSEMBLY permission on the server. Signing the assembly is recommended.

    • The database has the TRUSTWORTHY property set to ON, and the database is owned by a login that has the UNSAFE ASSEMBLY permission on the server. This option isn't recommended.

Examples

The following example first displays the current setting of the clr strict security option, and then sets the option value to 1 (enabled).

EXEC sp_configure 'clr strict security';
GO
EXEC sp_configure 'clr strict security' , '1';
RECONFIGURE;
GO
