Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Oracle MySQL versions 5.7.11 and earlier
Description The issue is related to errors in the code of the MySQL database management system, specifically in the Optimizer component. It allows an attacker, potentially with network access, to impact the availability of the system by exploiting the vulnerability, which can lead to a denial of service (DOS) condition, including causing the MySQL Server to hang or crash repeatedly.
Recommendations For Oracle MySQL versions 5.7.11 and earlier, update to a version that addresses the issue in the Optimizer component to prevent potential exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
