The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - Vulnerability in the MySQL Server product of Oracle MySQL (component: Server: Optimizer). Supported     versions that are affected are 8.0.17 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-2019-2982)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

An update of the mysql package has been released.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:3755 advisory.

    MySQL is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. It consists of the MySQL server daemon (mysqld)     and many client programs and libraries.

    The following packages have been upgraded to a later upstream version: mysql (8.0.21).
