high Nessus Plugin ID 161429

Synopsis

The remote Slackware Linux host is missing a security update to mariadb.

Description

The version of mariadb installed on the remote host is prior to 10.5.16 / 10.6.8. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SSA:2022-141-01 advisory.

New mariadb packages are available for Slackware 15.0 and -current to fix security issues.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the mariadb security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade the affected mariadb package.
