CVE-2026-101760
Description
A flaw was found in the InnoDB component of MySQL. A remote attacker with high privileges and network access can exploit this vulnerability to cause the server to hang or crash repeatedly, resulting in a denial of service (DoS).
Statement
This vulnerability is rated as having Moderate impact for Red Hat Enterprise Linux because successful exploitation requires high-privileged database credentials, substantially narrowing the attack vector to trusted administrative accounts. Although an authenticated privileged user could trigger a denial of service by causing the InnoDB engine to hang or terminate unexpectedly, there is no impact on data confidentiality or system integrity. Standard enterprise environments generally isolate database interfaces and strictly control administrative privileges, which significantly lessens operational exposure.
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.
