Detailed Description |
The version of MySQL Community Server installed on the remote host is earlier than 5.1.52 and thus potentially affected by multiple vulnerabilities:
- An error exists in the handling of 'EXPLAIN' for a 'SELECT' statement from a derived table which can cause the server to crash. (54488) - An error exists in the handling of 'EXPLAIN EXTENDED' when used in some prepared statements, which can cause the server to crash. (54494) - The server does not check the type of values assigned to items of type 'GeometryCollection'. Such assignments can cause the server to crash. (55531)
* Note: This check solely relied on the banner of the remote MySQL server to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.

* Platforms Affected: MySQL versions prior to 5.1.52 Any operating system Any version |
