Azure SQL Managed Instance must maintain a separate execution domain for each executing process.

Rule version MSQL-D0-012300 · STIG v1 · 2025-10-07

Discussion

Database management systems can maintain separate execution domains for each executing process by assigning each process a separate address space.

Each process has a distinct address space so that communication between processes is controlled through the security functions, and one process cannot modify the executing code of another process.

Maintaining separate execution domains for executing processes can be achieved, for example, by implementing separate address spaces.

Check

Review the server documentation to determine whether use of CLR assemblies is required.

To determine if CLR is enabled, execute the following command:

SELECT name, value, value_in_use FROM sys.configurations WHERE name = 'clr enabled'

If "value_in_use" is a "1", review the system documentation to determine whether the use of CLR code is approved. If it is not approved, this is a finding.

Fix

Disable use of or remove any CLR code that is not authorized.

To disable the use of CLR, from the query prompt:

EXEC SP_CONFIGURE 'clr enabled', 0; RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE;
