CVSS v2.0
7.5
High
| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:N/I:P/A:C |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
MySQL Server versions 5.6.39 and prior
MySQL Server versions 5.7.21 and prior
Description
The issue is related to inadequate access control in the InnoDB component of MySQL Server, allowing a high-privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise the server. Successful attacks can result in unauthorized access to update, insert, or delete data, as well as cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash of MySQL Server, leading to a complete denial of service.
Recommendations
For MySQL Server versions 5.6.39 and prior, update to a version later than 5.6.39 to resolve the issue.
For MySQL Server versions 5.7.21 and prior, update to a version later than 5.7.21 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the InnoDB component to minimize the risk of exploitation.
Fix
Improper Access Control
