Security Admin On A Server With NO Public Permissions

Sep 21, 2005

I am working with a SQLServer installation where all public permissions
have been revoked from the system.

I currently hold the securityadmin and sysadmin roles to perform my
logicall access control work (creating logins and adding users to
databases and changing group memberships.)

There has been a question as to whether or not I need the sysadmin role
to do my job, so we tried an experiment in dropping the sysadmin role
from my id.

With no public permissions, I see no user information on the server,
which really limits my ability to do the job.

Has anyone ever worked with a super-locked-down server without the
sysadmin role for doing security admin work?

What I'm looking for is hopefully SQL to perform the access privileges
needed for the security admin role by itself.

Thanks in advance!

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Does Security-admin Role Plus Deny Alter Any Login Cancel Each Other Out

Aug 27, 2015

I want to set up a database role so that users can use sp_readerrorlog through SSMS. It does a check on membership in the securityadmin role.

I have tested it and can see you can grant execute on xp_readerrorlog but the SSMS GUI uses sp_readerrorlog.

I thought I could create a user/certificate and add the signature to sp_readerrorlog but it's not permitted (likely because it's not a normal database object).

So the other solution is to add the users to the securityadmin role but then explicitly deny alter any login (best done with a custom server role in 2012+ but otherwise just manually in 2008). I tested this out and it works, I'm not able to alter any logins or increase my own permissions, I also did a check of what's reported from fn_my_permissions(null, null) and it shows minimal permissions like I'd expect.

Public Database Permissions

May 2, 2007

I have a db that I use as the backend to an Access application. The application looks at 2 databases that are on the clinet machine. A db from a vendor and my new database. I can read the vendor db (with the proper dns), but I can only read my db when the user has admin privileges. I have granted the public all permissions for the table on my db. What am I missing?

Also, this is a db on a Small business Server 2003 so all of the SQL tools do not appear to be there.

TIA

Srvr Permissions: Public Gone, Need It Back!

Jun 3, 2008

Hi all,

Hope someone can help: by default, there's an entry for 'public' in server permissions (right-click server in Management Studio > Properties > Permissions), which has 1 selection: 'View All Databases' is set to 'grant'. I wanted to disable this permission, and so unfortunately unchecked the 'grant' tickbox but forgot to tick the 'deny' tickbox. What appears to have happened is the entire 'public' entry has been removed, meaning I can't go back and reselect 'grant' (or 'deny') for 'View All Databases'. I'd really like to get the 'public' role to reappear... Is that possible?

A very big thanks for any help!

Reseting Select Permissions For Public Role

Sep 13, 2004

Every night, there are some stored procedures that run to recreate tables so that the information in the table is updated. After the tables are droped and recreated I have to go in and check the select box under the permissions for the public role. If i don't do this users will not be able to select from theres tables.

What can I do so that users are able to select from these tables after they are created?

Would you be able to specify the select permissions for the public role in the script that creates the table or run a script that gives all those tables select permissions for the public role?

All help is appreciated.

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Logins With No Database Permissions

Nov 3, 2014

Query to show logins that don't have any permissions within the SQL instance? I'm tasked with doing some cleanup and have found some cases where the database was deleted or moved to another server but the logins that used it were not deleted. I'd like to identify them to research.

For instance a query to show logins that have no permissions in any of the existing databases would be handy. I'm thinking it would be complicated by the need to loop through all of the existing databases and then outer join it to the list of instance level logins. Going to try to write something like that but was hoping that a script already exists.

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Required Permissions To Enable Mirroring Session

Oct 29, 2015

I have a Windows NT group that is used to delegate certain database responsibilities to other members of staff and I am trying to grant permissions for the members of the group to be be able to establish database mirroring sessions, as in run the following:

ALTER DATABASE <database>
SET PARTNER = 'tcp://principal_server.domain.com:port';

Although the group has db_owner role membership to the user database which grants the ALTER permission on the database, the following is being generated in the error log when they get to this step on the intended Mirror instance after restoring the database correctly in preperation:

SqlDumpExceptionHandler: Process 59 generated fatal exception c0000005 EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION. SQL Server is terminating this process.
* *******************************************************************************
*
* BEGIN STACK DUMP:
* 10/29/15 11:16:15 spid 59
*
*
* Exception Address = 00007FF9A6AF838C Module(sqlmin+000000000003838C)
* Exception Code = c0000005 EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION
* Access Violation occurred reading address 00000000000000D8
* Input Buffer 210 bytes -
* alter database <redacted> set partner = '<redacted>';

As you can see, the statement is denied to the user. There are no issues with the database as I am able to run the same query successfully using my own sysadmin account after the failed attempt. What other minimum permissions the group might need to successfully enable them to setup a mirroring session?

SQL Security :: Check Server Accounts Permissions

Jun 25, 2015

I'm trying to harden our SQL Server environment to improve overall security of our systems. I would like to check what specific permissions are granted to SQL Server, SQL Server Agent and SQL Server Integration Services account. I've tried with the "sc qprivs <service_name> " command, but it returns an empty privilege list. Is there a way to retrieve the permissions using a cmd or powershell command?

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Does Changing Service Account Update NTFS Permissions

Nov 22, 2014

If you were to do a fresh install it would set permissions on the disk so everything just works.

Now when changing the service account (e.g. to a domain user) use the configuration manager, does it do the same magic (possibly sans if the database data/log files are on another disk)? Or do you need to trawl through the dozens of folders and assign rights manually?

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: PowerShell Security Error

Jul 16, 2015

I have a SQL Server 2014 instance running on a SQL Server 2008 R2 server. The server is not clustered, it is just a stand alone SQL Server. The syspolicy_ purge_history job fails every now and then with the error message: "A job step received an error at line 1 in a PowerShell script. The corresponding line is 'import-module SQLPS -DisableNameChecking'. Correct the script and reschedule the job. The error information returned by PowerShell is: 'Access to the path 'PowerShell_CommandAnalysis_Lock' is denied. '. Process Exit Code -1. The step failed."

Google isn't bringing up much besides the whole"If this is a clustered server make sure you have the right server name in the command" answer, which isn't the case here. Some days this job fails and some days it succeeds. I have checked out task scheduler to see if there were any conflicts there, found nothing. Nothing in the event viewer either.

SQL Server Setup Failed To Modify Security Permissions

Feb 19, 2007

Last night at home on my 64 bit Vista machine, I encountered the same error 29506 that said that the management studio express could not be installed.  I looked up the error message and below is what I received.  I also installed the 64 bit .net framework which installed just fine before trying to install the SSSME.

I followed the instructions below but this did not seem to make a difference.  However, I did not reboot after applying new permissions.  I have installed this software a few times now on 32 bit machines for both XP and RC1 Vista, and have not had a problem.  Last night, I did use the 64 bit version.  Also, there is no data file yet because after the install it rolls back, so I gave myself Full permissions on the SQL server directory which should include all sub directories, right?  Thanks, Teri
Error 29506.
SQL Server Setup failed to modify security permissions on file Drive:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.xMSSQLData for user SYSTEM. To proceed, verify that the account and domain running SQL Server Setup exist, that the account running SQL Server Setup has administrator privileges, and that exists on the destination drive.

Note A SQL Server service pack refers to SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 1 (SP1) and later service packs.
CAUSE
This problem occurs because one or more data files exist that do not have the required permissions. By default, the Full Control permission of the Administrators group is granted to the data file when you create a database. If the permission of this group is removed from the data file, the SQL Server 2005 service pack setup will fail.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, grant the Full Control permission to the Administrators group on all data files and on the Data folder. To grant the Full Control permission to the data files, follow these steps:



1.
Locate the folder that contains the data files. By default, these files are located in the following folder:
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData

2.
Right-click the data file that has no required permissions for the Administrators group, and then click Properties.

3.
If the Administrators group is not in the Group or user names list, click Add, type Administrators, and then click OK.

4.
Click Administrators in the Group or user names list, and then click to select the Allow check box for the Full Control item in the Permissions for Administrators list.Note If the files in the Data folder have an orphan owner, you have to take ownership of the files and then grant the Full Control permission to the files. We recommend that you do not change the default permissions for the data files.

Error 29506. SQL Server Setup Failed To Modify Security Permissions

Aug 15, 2007

Received the following error while installing SP2

MSI (s) (D8!A0) [21:07:09:062]: Product: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 -- Error 29506. SQL Server Setup failed to modify security permissions on file C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData for user Administrator. To proceed, verify that the account and domain running SQL Server Setup exist, that the account running SQL Server Setup has administrator privileges, and that exists on the destination drive.

Tried running install with a domain account and local account with same results.

Based on the error message, I checked permission on the drive and still received the same error.

Followed resolution based on KB 916766, this did not resolve the error.

Only possible resolution I found was to disable UAP, reboot and retry the install. This will be done as a last resort, but any other suggestion will be appreciated.


Many Thanks

 I have a SQL Server 2005 Express database, and I'm trying to add a new user to it... however I thought I'd given it the correct permissions, but it's saying it hasn't got SELECT permissions on all of the tables.  How do I grant a user the neccessary permissions on a database to just do standard select, updates, deletes and inserts and nothing else?

Required Permissions (no Local Admin) For Deploying A Report

May 7, 2007

Hi all,

what are the minimum required permissions for being allowed to deploy a report? When I try to deploy a report in BIDS I get the error message that my user has not sufficient rights for doing so.

Some key data for my configuration:


Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1
SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1
I'm not a local administrator, but I have administration rights for SQL Server and Analysis Services
I'm in the Reporting Services' system administrator and system user groups

I can access http://localhost/Reports, but not http://localhost/ReportServer
I have access to the directory (incl. subdirectories) MSSQL.2, but not to MSSQL.1MSSQL and MSSQL3Reporting Services
I can't run the Reporting Services Configuration Tool (see http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1565766&SiteID=1)
I can't connect to Reporting Services in SQL Server Management Studio

My question is (as I have already mentioned in the beginning): what are the minimum rights the IT administrator has to assign to my user so that I'll be able to deploy reports? Giving me local administrator rights is not possible.

Thanx in advance and kind regards,
Gerald



Update:

In the meantime I have found out, that I'm most probably not a member of the Publisher role. But although I am in the System Administrator role I cannot assign myself to this role. When going to http://localhost/Reports the required links are just not visible. Is this because I'm not a member of the groups SQLServer2005ReportServerUser$... and SQLServer2005ReportingServicesWebServerUser$... ?

Does Xp_cmdshell Proxy Account Need Admin-level Permissions?

Oct 4, 2007

Re: SQL Server 2005

Does the xp_cmdshell proxy account need admin-level permissions on the server?

The reason I ask this is because I keep getting "Access is Denied" errors when trying to run this command as a non-admin:

master..xp_cmdshell dtexec 'some package'

The 'some package' has an "execute process task" which calls a batch file on the server.

If the proxy account is NOT a local admin, the "execute process tasks" fails with an "Access is Denied" error.

If the proxy account is a local admin, it executes fine.

We have given "Everyone" FULL CONTROL of all the folders that are affected by the batch file, and it still does not work.

I am out of ideas at this point. It just does not work unless it's an admin.

Are we missing something here?

How do I grant admin access to a windows account withou having them a part of the administrators group...

I need to give a user access to every report on the server and the ability to administrate the application side of the server but I cannot give them Administrative access to the machine as a whole. I added the user to the system administrators role in team services but this did not allow here to see all the reports. How does she get access to all the reports without being in the Windows local Administrators group?

As it is right now i have two sql logins one for readers and one for modifiers. I need to open the database up to windows auth.

I want users to only be able to see views and not the tables. I also want users to be able to modify the table if they are in one view but not in the other views. How would i do this? I have limited experience with permissions like this.

How To Script Security Permissions?

Jul 23, 2005

I have a very large table that is refreshed periodically. Since it'sso big, I do a 'drop table', 'create table', 'create index' then a bulkload. It's much faster than doing a 'delete from'. I also do a'shrinkdb' as part of this process.The problem, however, is that the user permissions are also dropped inthis process. So, how can I script the user permissions? For example,how do I give 'MyUser' select access to 'MyTable' in 'MyDB'? Manythanks!!Eben YongJoin Bytes!

Trigger Security/permissions

Aug 3, 2006

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but I believe it's the closest to my question (if not, please let me know).

I am wondering if it's possible to perform an INSERT to another table in another database from within a trigger. For example:

CREATE TRIGGER inserted_mytable ON mytable
FOR INSERT
AS

DECLARE @rc INT
SELECT @rc = @@ROWCOUNT
IF @rc = 0 RETURN

INSERT INTO [OtherDB].[dbo].mytable2
SELECT *
FROM inserted

Both mytable and mytable2 have the exact same structure. What appears to be happening is that the INSERT statement locks up the mytable database. Is there a permissions problem here, or is this just not possible?

Thanks,

Jeff Tolman

Any Security Issues Around Using SELECT Only Permissions

Jan 17, 2008

I have access to an SQL server 2000 or 2005 database and only required access to SELECT data from certain tables. I have been given access to the database for my windows form application which runs dynamic SQL statements. The statements are stored in xml files and parameters inserted at runtime. There is the possibility of encrypting the xml file.

I wanted to know if someone was to add a delete, insert or malicious command into the xml file would SQL server still run the command even though the User permission is only for SELECT?

Your help is appreciated

Restrict ASP.NET App DB Permissions Using Integrated Security

Mar 6, 2007

How might I Restrict ASP.NET app DB permissions using Integrated Security?

I can see how it's done with SQL Authentication, but I'd prefer to do it with Windows Authentication.

Is it a matter of restricting the permissions of the general ASP.NET user (€œNT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE€?)...seems like it might affect too much.

Or can I have a Windows user/identity/account that is specific to a single ASP.NET Application?

Any guidance on this would be appreciated.

Thanks!
