SCA: security update for org.mariadb.jdbc:mariadb-java-client (GHSA-h599-m3w5-9m7x)

medium Tenable Self-Hosted Container Security Plugin ID 478068

Description

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

- MariaDB Connector/J is used to connect applications developed in Java to MariaDB and MySQL databases. From
3.0.0 until 3.3.7, 3.4.5, and 3.5.11, when CLIENT_SESSION_TRACK was negotiated, the OkPacket.parse() and
OkPacket.parseWithInfo() paths allocated byte arrays using server-declared lengths for the OK packet info
field and session-state variable names and values before confirming that the bytes remained in the packet.
A malicious or compromised server, or a machine-in-the-middle attacker, could send a small OK packet
declaring a much larger length and repeatedly force attacker-controlled heap allocations before the
subsequent copy failed. This could create garbage-collection pressure or an OutOfMemoryError in the client
application. This issue is fixed in versions 3.3.7, 3.4.5, and 3.5.11. (CVE-2026-119276)

Solution

Update the org.mariadb.jdbc:mariadb-java-client library and its related packages to version 3.3.7 or later.
