A vulnerability was recently discovered in Cloud SQL for SQL Server that allowed customer administrator accounts to create triggers in the tempdb
database and use those to gain sysadmin
privileges in the instance. The sysadmin
privileges would give the attacker access to system databases and partial access to the machine running that SQL Server instance.
Google Cloud resolved the issue by patching the security vulnerability by March 1, 2023. Google Cloud didn't find any compromised customer instances.
For instructions and more details, see the Cloud SQL security bulletin.

Cloud SQL for MySQLCloud SQL now offers "deny maintenance periods". With deny maintenance periods, you can prevent automatic maintenance from occurring during a specific time period. For example, the end-of-year holiday season is a time of peak load that requires heightened focus on infrastructure stability for many retail businesses. By setting a deny maintenance period from mid-October to mid-January, these businesses can prevent planned upgrades from Cloud SQL during their busiest time of year.
Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL now offers IAM database authentication to help you better monitor and manage access for users and service accounts to databases. This feature allows users and service accounts to use IAM credentials to log into PostgreSQL instances. To learn more about how IAM database authentication works, see the Overview of Cloud SQL IAM database authentication. To configure an instance, see Configuring instances for IAM database authentication. To create users or service accounts, see Creating and managing users that use IAM database authentication.

Database auditing in Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL is available through the open-source pgAudit extension. Using this extension, you can selectively record and track SQL operations performed against a given database instance.
The pgAudit extension helps you configure many of the logs often required to comply with government, financial, and ISO certifications.

Cloud SQL for MySQLCloud SQL has upgraded Replicating from an external server to version 1.1. You can now:
- Replicate from sources where GTID is not enabled.
- Allow Cloud SQL to copy data directly from an external server to a Cloud SQL replica.
- Use new APIs that give you greater control to verify replication requirements, retry after making external server configuration changes, and remove the 30-minute limit for successful connectivity to an external server.
Cloud SQL for SQL Server enables you to set a default collation value for databases in an instance. This collation value is a default for sorting rules, case, and accent sensitivity. You can set this value through the Cloud Console, the gcloud
command, and the Cloud SQL Admin API.

Cloud SQL for MySQLCloud SQL Second Generation MySQL instances have a new high availability (HA) configuration. The new HA configuration, based on Google's Regional Disks, eliminates replication lag and, combined with automatic failover, provides isolation from many types of infrastructure, hardware, and software failures. Regional disks also ensure that all previously committed database transactions are persisted and available after failover, right up to the time of the failure.
The new high availability configuration is the default. You can continue to use the API to create instances with the legacy high availability configuration (using failover replicas) until the upgrade of existing instances occurs in early 2020. To learn how high availability now works for Second Generation MySQL instances, see the Overview of the high availability configuration. To enable high availability on existing instances, or to create new instances with high availability, see Enabling and disabling high availability on an instance.
