mu-b discovered a NULL pointer dereference in item_cmpfunc.cc when
|
||
|
|
processing certain types of SQL requests. Sec Consult also discovered
|
||
|
|
another NULL pointer dereference when sorting certain types of queries
|
||
|
|
on the database metadata.

<impact type="normal">

|
<p>
|
||
|
|
In both cases, a remote attacker could send a specially crafted SQL
|
||
|
|
request to the server, possibly resulting in a server crash. Note that
|
||
|
|
the attacker needs the ability to execute SELECT queries.

<workaround>

There is no known workaround at this time.
