Descriptions

Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle MySQL 5.5.51 and earlier, 5.6.32 and earlier, and 5.7.14 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to affect availability via vectors related to Server: Types.

Vulnerabilidad no especificada en Oracle MySQL 5.5.51 y versiones anteriores, 5.6.32 y versiones anteriores y 5.7.14 y versiones anteriores permite a usuarios remotos autenticados afectar la disponibilidad a través de vectores relacionados con Server: Types.

MariaDB is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. For all practical purposes, MariaDB is binary-compatible with MySQL. The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version: rh-mariadb100-mariadb. Security Fix: It was discovered that the MariaDB logging functionality allowed writing to MariaDB configuration files. An administrative database user, or a database user with FILE privileges, could possibly use this flaw to run arbitrary commands with root privileges on the system running the database server.
