Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Oracle MySQL versions 5.1.67 and earlier Oracle MySQL versions 5.5.29 and earlier MariaDB versions 5.5.28a and possibly other versions

Description The issue allows remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service, resulting in a mysqld crash. This can be achieved via a SELECT command that includes an UpdateXML command containing XML with a large number of unique, nested elements.

Recommendations For Oracle MySQL versions 5.1.67 and earlier, update to a version later than 5.1.67 to resolve the issue. For Oracle MySQL versions 5.5.29 and earlier, update to a version later than 5.5.29 to resolve the issue. For MariaDB versions 5.5.28a and possibly other versions, consider restricting access to the UpdateXML command as a temporary workaround until a patch is available.
