| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Oracle MySQL versions 5.5.50 and earlier
Oracle MySQL versions 5.6.31 and earlier
Oracle MySQL versions 5.7.13 and earlier
Description
The issue allows remote authenticated users to affect availability via vectors related to DML, potentially resulting in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash of MySQL Server. This can be exploited by a high privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols.
Recommendations
For versions 5.5.50 and earlier, update to a version later than 5.5.50 to resolve the issue.
For versions 5.6.31 and earlier, update to a version later than 5.6.31 to resolve the issue.
For versions 5.7.13 and earlier, update to a version later than 5.7.13 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to DML operations to minimize the risk of exploitation.
