Stairway to SQL Server Security

Stairway to SQL Server Security Level 6: Execution Context and Code Signing

A fundamental way that SQL Server determines whether a principal has the permissions necessary to execute code is with its execution context rules. It’s all complicated by the possibility that a principal has permission to execute code but doesn’t have permission on the underlying objects accessed by the code, such as the data in a table. This stairway level will explore SQL Server’s execution context, ownership chains, and impersonation, as well as show you how you can control access to data via T-SQL code.

Question of the Day

Which Result II

I have this code in SQL Server 2022:

CREATE SCHEMA etl;
GO
CREATE TABLE etl.product
(
    ProductID INT,
    ProductName VARCHAR(100)
);
GO
INSERT etl.product
VALUES
(2, 'Bee AI Wearable');
GO
CREATE TABLE dbo.product
(
    ProductID INT,
    ProductName VARCHAR(100)
);
GO
INSERT dbo.product
VALUES
(1, 'Spiral College-ruled Notebook');
GO
CREATE OR ALTER PROCEDURE etl.GettheProduct
AS
BEGIN
    exec('SELECT ProductName FROM product;')
END;
GO
exec etl.GettheProduct
When I execute this code as a user whose default schema is dbo and has rights to the tables and proc, what is returned?
