The version of MySQL running on the remote host is 5.7.x prior to 5.7.21. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as noted in the January 2018 Critical Patch Update advisory. Please consult the CVRF details for the applicable CVEs for additional information.

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

This update for mysql-community-server to version 5.6.39 fixes several issues.

These security issues were fixed :

  - CVE-2018-2622: Vulnerability in the subcomponent:
    Server: DDL. Easily exploitable vulnerability allowed     low 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 (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2018-2562: Vulnerability in the subcomponent: Server     : Partition. Easily exploitable vulnerability allowed     low 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 as well as unauthorized update,     insert or delete access to some of MySQL Server     accessible data (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2018-2640: Vulnerability in the subcomponent:
    Server: Optimizer. Easily exploitable vulnerability     allowed low 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     (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2018-2665: Vulnerability in the subcomponent:
    Server: Optimizer). Supported versions that are affected     are 5.5.58 and prior, 5.6.38 and prior and 5.7.20 and     prior. Easily exploitable vulnerability allowed low     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 (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2018-2668: Vulnerability in the subcomponent:
    Server: Optimizer. Easily exploitable vulnerability     allowed low 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     (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2018-2696: Vulnerability in the subcomponent: Server     : Security : Privileges). Supported versions that are     affected are 5.6.38 and prior and 5.7.20 and prior.
    Easily exploitable vulnerability allowed unauthenticated     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 (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2018-2583: Vulnerability in the subcomponent: Stored     Procedure. Easily exploitable vulnerability allowed high     privileged attacker with network access via multiple     protocols to compromise MySQL Server. While the     vulnerability is in MySQL Server, attacks may     significantly impact additional products. Successful     attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized     ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash     (complete DOS) of MySQL Server (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2018-2612: Vulnerability in the subcomponent:
    InnoDB. Easily exploitable vulnerability allowed high     privileged attacker with network access via multiple     protocols to compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks     of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized     creation, deletion or modification access to critical     data or all MySQL Server accessible data and     unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently     repeatable crash (complete DOS) of MySQL Server     (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2018-2703: Vulnerability in the subcomponent: Server     : Security : Privileges. Easily exploitable     vulnerability allowed low 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 (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2018-2573: Vulnerability in the subcomponent:
    Server: GIS. Easily exploitable vulnerability allowed     low 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 (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2017-3737: OpenSSL introduced an 'error state'     mechanism. The intent was that if a fatal error occurred     during a handshake then OpenSSL would move into the     error state and would immediately fail if you attempted     to continue the handshake. This works as designed for     the explicit handshake functions (SSL_do_handshake(),     SSL_accept() and SSL_connect()), however due to a bug it     did not work correctly if SSL_read() or SSL_write() is     called directly. In that scenario, if the handshake     fails then a fatal error will be returned in the initial     function call. If SSL_read()/SSL_write() is subsequently     called by the application for the same SSL object then     it will succeed and the data is passed without being     decrypted/encrypted directly from the SSL/TLS record     layer. In order to exploit this issue an application bug     would have to be present that resulted in a call to     SSL_read()/SSL_write() being issued after having already     received a fatal error

  - CVE-2018-2647: Vulnerability in the subcomponent:
    Server: Replication. Easily exploitable vulnerability     allowed 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 as well     as unauthorized update, insert or delete access to some     of MySQL Server accessible data (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2018-2591: Vulnerability in the subcomponent: Server     : Partition. Easily exploitable vulnerability allowed     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     (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2018-2590: Vulnerability in the subcomponent:
    Server: Performance Schema. Easily exploitable     vulnerability allowed 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 (bsc#1076369).

  - CVE-2018-2645: Vulnerability in the subcomponent:
    Server: Performance Schema. Easily exploitable     vulnerability allowed high privileged attacker with     network access via multiple protocols to compromise     MySQL Server.
