Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions

Description
The issue is related to the MySQL Server product, specifically the Server: Security: Privileges component. It allows a high-privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise the MySQL Server. Successful attacks can result in the unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash of the MySQL Server, leading to a denial of service. The vulnerability is easily exploitable and can be triggered remotely.
Recommendations
For MySQL Server versions 8.0.37 and prior, update to a version later than 8.0.37 to resolve the issue.
For MySQL Server versions 8.4.0 and prior, update to a version later than 8.4.0 to resolve the issue.
As a temporary workaround, consider restricting network access to the MySQL Server to minimize the risk of exploitation.
