RHSA-2015:1665 - Security Advisory

Topic

Updated mariadb packages that fix several security issues are now available
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Moderate security
impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give
detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the
CVE links in the References section.

Description

MariaDB is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server that is binary
compatible with MySQL.

It was found that the MySQL client library permitted but did not require a
client to use SSL/TLS when establishing a secure connection to a MySQL
server using the "--ssl" option. A man-in-the-middle attacker could use
this flaw to strip the SSL/TLS protection from a connection between a
client and a server. (CVE-2015-3152)

This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the MariaDB database server.
Information about these flaws can be found on the Oracle Critical Patch
Update Advisory page, listed in the References section. (CVE-2015-0501,
CVE-2015-2568, CVE-2015-0499, CVE-2015-2571, CVE-2015-0433, CVE-2015-0441,
CVE-2015-0505, CVE-2015-2573, CVE-2015-2582, CVE-2015-2620, CVE-2015-2643,
CVE-2015-2648, CVE-2015-4737, CVE-2015-4752, CVE-2015-4757)

These updated packages upgrade MariaDB to version 5.5.44. Refer to the
MariaDB Release Notes listed in the References section for a complete list
of changes.

All MariaDB users should upgrade to these updated packages, which correct
these issues. After installing this update, the MariaDB server daemon
(mysqld) will be restarted automatically.
