Executive Summary

This is a vulnerability in the MySQL Server and MySQL Cluster products, specifically affecting the InnoDB component. It allows a highly privileged attacker with local access to cause a denial of service (DOS) by crashing or hanging the MySQL Server or Cluster repeatedly.

Detection Guidance

This CVE describes a denial-of-service vulnerability in MySQL Server and MySQL Cluster. Detection requires checking the installed MySQL version against affected ranges (8.4.0-8.4.12, 9.7.0-9.7.3, 26.7.0-26.7.1 for Server; 8.0.0-8.0.49, 8.4.0-8.4.12, 9.7.0-9.7.3, 26.7.0-26.7.1 for Cluster). Use commands like 'mysql --version' or check package managers (e.g., 'dpkg -l | grep mysql-server' on Debian/Ubuntu).

Impact Analysis

If you use affected versions of MySQL Server or MySQL Cluster, an attacker with high privileges could exploit this flaw to disrupt database operations, leading to downtime and loss of availability for your applications relying on MySQL.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability primarily impacts availability, which could lead to data processing interruptions. For GDPR, this may affect timely data access or processing. For HIPAA, it could disrupt critical healthcare operations. Compliance may require mitigating controls to ensure data availability.

Mitigation Strategies

Upgrade MySQL Server and MySQL Cluster to versions beyond the affected ranges (8.4.12, 9.7.3, 26.7.1 for Server; 8.0.49, 8.4.12, 9.7.3, 26.7.1 for Cluster). Apply patches from Oracle as soon as they are available.
