Frequently Asked Questions
Who is realistically exposed to exploitation?
Exposure is limited to affected MySQL Server or MySQL Cluster deployments where an attacker already has high privileges and can log on to the infrastructure hosting the service. The attacker must also induce interaction by another person.
What is the likely impact of a successful attack?
A successful attack can cause MySQL Server or MySQL Cluster to hang or crash repeatedly, resulting in a complete denial of service. The provided CVSS vector indicates no confidentiality or integrity impact.
Are affected deployments vulnerable through network-only access?
No. The CVSS vector identifies local attack vector requirements, and the attacker needs logon access to the infrastructure where MySQL Server or MySQL Cluster runs.
Which release families are identified as affected?
Affected MySQL Server releases 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 releases 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.
