| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:N/I:N/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Oracle MySQL Server versions 5.5.38 and earlier
Description
The issue allows remote authenticated users to affect availability via vectors related to SERVER:DDL. This means that authenticated users can potentially impact the system's availability through specific actions related to data definition language (DDL) operations on the server.
Recommendations
For Oracle MySQL Server versions 5.5.38 and earlier, consider restricting access to DDL operations to minimize the risk of exploitation until a fix is available. As a temporary workaround, limit the privileges of remote authenticated users to reduce the potential impact on availability.
