FIX: An Access Violation Occurs if an sp_cursoropen Call References a Parameter That Is Not Defined (810163)

SYMPTOMS

If an sp_cursoropen call references a parameter that is not defined, the server raises a handled access violation in CExecParam::Init. The query may look similar to the following query:

exec sp_cursoropen @P1 output,
      N'SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE somecolumn = @P5',
      @P2 output, @P3 output, @P4 output

Note The query includes an @P5 parameter, but the type and value of the parameter are not provided.

The following stack is similar to the stack that is recorded in the SQL Server error log:
