CVE-2026-3494

Description

A flaw was found in MariaDB. An authenticated database user can exploit this vulnerability by invoking SQL statements prefixed with double-hyphen (—) or hash (#) style comments. When the server audit plugin is enabled with specific event filtering, these statements are not logged. This oversight can lead to critical database operations bypassing audit logging, hindering security monitoring and compliance.

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).

The following CVSS metrics and score provided are preliminary and subject to review.
