medium Nessus Plugin ID 242740

Synopsis

The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 7.02, has mariadb packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- Vulnerability in the MySQL Server product of Oracle MySQL (component: InnoDB). Supported versions that are affected are 8.0.40 and prior, 8.4.3 and prior and 9.1.0 and prior. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise MySQL Server.
Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of MySQL Server. (CVE-2025-21490)

- MariaDB Server 10.4 before 10.4.33, 10.5 before 10.5.24, 10.6 before 10.6.17, 10.7 through 10.11 before 10.11.7, 11.0 before 11.0.5, and 11.1 before 11.1.4 calls fix_fields_if_needed under mysql_derived_prepare when derived is not yet prepared, leading to a find_field_in_table crash. (CVE-2023-52968)

- MariaDB Server 10.4 through 10.5.*, 10.6 through 10.6.*, 10.7 through 10.11.*, and 11.0 through 11.0.* can sometimes crash with an empty backtrace log. This may be related to make_aggr_tables_info and optimize_stage2. (CVE-2023-52969)

- MariaDB Server 10.4 through 10.5.*, 10.6 through 10.6.*, 10.7 through 10.11.*, 11.0 through 11.0.*, and 11.1 through 11.4.* crashes in Item_direct_view_ref::derived_field_transformer_for_where. (CVE-2023-52970)

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