CVSS v2.0
3.5
Low
| Vector | AV:N/AC:M/Au:S/C:P/I:N/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Oracle MySQL versions 5.7.14 and earlier
Description
The issue affects the confidentiality of the system, allowing remote authenticated users to exploit it via vectors related to Server: Security: Privileges. This vulnerability can be easily exploited by a high-privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols, potentially leading to a denial-of-service (DOS) condition where the MySQL Server hangs or crashes repeatedly.
Recommendations
For Oracle MySQL versions 5.7.14 and earlier, update to a version later than 5.7.14 to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting network access to the MySQL Server to minimize the risk of exploitation.
Fix
DoS
