| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:S/C:N/I:P/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Oracle MySQL Server versions 5.7.28 and prior
Oracle MySQL Server versions 8.0.18 and prior
Description
The issue is related to insufficient access control in the Server: Audit Plugin component of Oracle MySQL Server. It allows a high-privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise the MySQL Server. Successful attacks can result in unauthorized update, insert, or delete access to some of the MySQL Server's accessible data. The vulnerability can also cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash of the MySQL Server.
Recommendations
For Oracle MySQL Server versions 5.7.28 and prior, update to a version later than 5.7.28 to resolve the issue.
For Oracle MySQL Server versions 8.0.18 and prior, update to a version later than 8.0.18 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting network access to the MySQL Server to minimize the risk of exploitation.
