Oracle · Dbd::Mysql · CVE-2017-10788
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** DBD::mysql module versions through 4.043 **Description** The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, potentially leading to an application crash, by triggering certain error responses from a MySQL server or a loss of network connection to the server. This is due to a use-after-free defect, which was introduced by incorrect documentation and code examples from Oracle mysql stmt close. **Recommendations** For DBD::mysql module versions through 4.043, consider updating to a version that addresses the use-after-free defect to prevent potential denial of service attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider implementing error handling mechanisms to mitigate the impact of error responses from the MySQL server or network connection losses.
