Low-impact vulnerability in Red Hat Enterprise Linux and Fedora's MySQL packages: a difficult-to-exploit issue in the MySQL Client programs component can allow a low-privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to cause a partial denial of service of MySQL Server. The CVSS 3.1 score is 3.1 (LOW), consistent with the required network access, high attack complexity, and limited availability impact. The current affects mark Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8, 9, and 10 MySQL packages and the Fedora community mysql8.0 package as affected; no not-affected product distinction is recorded. Resolution is delegated, and a fix is being pursued.

Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).
