Synopsis

The remote database server is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of MariaDB installed on the remote host is prior to 5.5.45. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the mariadb-5545-release-notes advisory.

- Unspecified vulnerability in Oracle MySQL Server 5.5.44 and earlier, and 5.6.25 and earlier, allows local users to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to Client programs. (CVE-2015-4819)

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