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: Federated). Supported     versions that are affected are 5.7.36 and prior and 8.0.27 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-2022-21270)

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

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2022:6518 advisory.

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