SCA: security update for mariadb (GHSA-48qf-xh34-q73r)

high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 473968

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- MariaDB Connector/Node.js is used to connect applications developed on Node.js to MariaDB and MySQL
databases. Prior to 3.2.5, 3.3.4, 3.4.7, and 3.5.4, the GeoJSON Polygon and MultiPolygon binary encoders
size a Buffer.allocUnsafe() allocation from each ring's numeric length before confirming that the ring is
an array. A malformed non-array ring can therefore reserve bytes that the writing loop skips, and the
connector sends the full buffer through execute() or batch(), disclosing uninitialized Node.js heap data
into a database value. The persisted data can include other users' content, session material, database
credentials, or TLS key material and may propagate to backups and replicas. The text-protocol query() path
is not affected. This issue is fixed in versions 3.2.5, 3.3.4, 3.4.7, and 3.5.4. (CVE-2026-107383)

Solution

Update the mariadb library and its related packages to version 3.2.5 or later.
