Package : mariadb Version : 10.11.19-0+deb12u1 CVE ID : CVE-2026-47023 CVE-2026-60184 CVE-2026-60331 CVE-2026-60585 CVE-2026-60747 CVE-2026-61081 Debian Bug : 1142644

Multiple vulnerabilities were discovered in MariaDB, a SQL database server compatible with MySQL. An authenticated attacker may perform denial-of-service, unauthorized read access, and possibly takeover of the MariaDB server/cluster.

Additionally, this update fixes too board server exposure, due to an incorrect interaction between new upstream systemd start-up files and older Debian packaging helpers, since the last bookworm July update.
See https://bugs.debian.org/1141976 for further detail.

For Debian 12 bookworm, these problems have been fixed in version 10.11.19-0+deb12u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your mariadb packages.

For the detailed security status of mariadb please refer to its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/mariadb

Further information about Debian LTS security advisories, how to apply these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be found at: https://wiki.debian.org/LTS

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Debian 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 libmariadb-dev packages.
