CVE-2017-10788
CVSS v3.1
9.8
Critical
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
DBD::mysql module versions through 4.043
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, potentially leading to an application crash, by triggering certain error responses from a MySQL server or a loss of network connection to the server. This is due to a use-after-free defect, which was introduced by incorrect documentation and code examples from Oracle mysql stmt close.
Recommendations
For DBD::mysql module versions through 4.043, consider updating to a version that addresses the use-after-free defect to prevent potential denial of service attacks. As a temporary workaround, consider implementing error handling mechanisms to mitigate the impact of error responses from the MySQL server or network connection losses.
