| Vector | AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Oracle MySQL versions 5.7.23 and prior
Oracle MySQL versions 8.0.12 and prior
Description
The issue is related to inadequate access control in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL, specifically in the Server: Security: Audit subcomponent. This can be exploited by an unauthenticated attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise the MySQL Server. Successful attacks can result in the ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of the MySQL Server.
Recommendations
For Oracle MySQL versions 5.7.23 and prior, update to a version later than 5.7.23 to resolve the issue.
For Oracle MySQL versions 8.0.12 and prior, update to a version later than 8.0.12 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting network access to the MySQL Server to minimize the risk of exploitation.
Fix
