CVE-2026-101799: Medium severity Oracle MySQL Server vulnerability
Vulnerability in the MySQL Server, MySQL Cluster product of Oracle MySQL (component: Server: Group Replication GCS). Supported versions that are affected are MySQL Server: 8.4.0-8.4.12, 9.7.0-9.7.3, 26.7.0-26.7.1; MySQL Cluster: 8.0.0-8.0.49, 8.4.0-8.4.12, 9.7.0-9.7.3 and 26.7.0-26.7.1. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated attacker with access to the physical communication segment attached to the hardware where the MySQL Server, MySQL Cluster executes to compromise MySQL Server, MySQL Cluster. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of MySQL Server, MySQL Cluster. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 6.5 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is realistically exposed to this vulnerability?
Affected MySQL Server and MySQL Cluster deployments are exposed when an attacker can access the physical network segment connected to the host. The attack does not require authentication or user interaction.
What is the impact of successful exploitation?
An attacker can cause the affected MySQL Server or MySQL Cluster instance to hang or repeatedly crash, resulting in a complete denial of service. The provided CVSS information identifies availability as the affected security property, with no confidentiality or integrity impact.
Which versions are affected?
Affected MySQL Server versions are 8.4.0 through 8.4.12, 9.7.0 through 9.7.3, and 26.7.0 through 26.7.1. Affected MySQL Cluster versions are 8.0.0 through 8.0.49, 8.4.0 through 8.4.12, 9.7.0 through 9.7.3, and 26.7.0 through 26.7.1.
What can be done while patching is pending?
Restrict access to the physical network segment used by affected systems, since the stated attack prerequisite is access to that segment. Prioritize isolation of MySQL Server and MySQL Cluster hosts from untrusted devices on attached network infrastructure.
