Description
A flaw was found in MariaDB. The dedicated database service account was configured using the database data directory as its home directory. An authenticated database user with file-writing privileges could place malicious startup scripts into this directory. This could result in arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the service account when an administrator opens a login shell for that user.
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).
