Impact
A flaw in the partition management component of Oracle MySQL Server allows a high‑privileged attacker with network access to trigger a server hang or complete crash. The effect is a denial of service that renders the database unavailable, while confidentiality and integrity remain unaffected.
Affected Systems
Oracle MySQL Server versions 9.0.0 through 9.6.0 are affected. No fixed release is documented yet, so customers should move to the latest supported version as soon as a vendor patch is released.
Risk and Exploitability
The CVSS vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H shows the vulnerability can be exploited over the network with low complexity once the attacker has high privileges. The EPSS score of < 1% indicates that exploitation is currently believed to be very unlikely, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA’s KEV catalog. Nevertheless, the availability impact can still disrupt critical services because a single crash can eliminate database availability for the affected instance.
