Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.801572
Category:Databases
Title:MySQL Denial of Service (infinite loop) Vulnerabilities
Summary:MySQL is prone to denial of service vulnerabilities.
Description:Summary:
MySQL is prone to denial of service vulnerabilities.

Vulnerability Insight:
The flaws are due to:

- Performing a user-variable assignment in a logical expression that is
calculated and stored in a temporary table for GROUP BY, then causing the
expression value to be used after the table is created, which causes the
expression to be re-evaluated instead of accessing its value from the table.

- An error in multiple invocations of a (1) prepared statement or (2) stored
procedure that creates a query with nested JOIN statements.

Vulnerability Impact:
Successful exploitation could allow users to cause a denial of service and
to execute arbitrary code.

Affected Software/OS:
MySQL 5.1 before 5.1.51 and 5.5 before 5.5.6.

Solution:
Upgrade to MySQL version 5.1.51 or 5.5.6.

CVSS Score:
4.0
