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

Several issues have been discovered in the MariaDB database server.
The vulnerabilities are addressed by upgrading MariaDB to the new upstream version 10.1.37. Please see the MariaDB 10.1 Release Notes for further details :
