SQL Server 2008R2 patches post SP3

Post by Jezza »

Hi All,

I am currently administrating a large number of SQL Server 2008 R2 databases which have not been cared for very well by my previous incumbent and have been undertaking a Service Pack roll out. I am near the end of my quest and have got them to SP3.

I have been looking for any security updates post SP3 and can only find MS15-058

Just so I am totally sure is there a definitive list of post SP3 updates?

Aaron Bertrand has a blog about updates for SQL Server. He mentions only two post-SP3 updates for SQL Server 2008 R2: An on-demand hotfix update package is available for SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3 from February of 2015, and the one you found, MS15-058: Description of the security update for SQL Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 3 GDR: July 14, 2015. Nothing after that, either there or elsewhere.
Best wishes,
Hans
