CVE-2026-101733

A flaw was found in the MySQL JSON component. An authenticated remote attacker with low privileges can exploit this vulnerability over the network using multiple protocols. A successful attack can cause the server to hang or repeatedly crash, resulting in a complete Denial of Service (DoS).

This vulnerability is rated as having a Moderate impact for Red Hat products because, although an attacker can cause a denial of service through an unexpected hang or crash, exploitation requires valid database authentication with low-level privileges. The issue is confined to availability impacts within the JSON handling subsystem, with no impact on data confidentiality or integrity. In standard Red Hat Enterprise Linux deployments where database credentials and network access are strictly controlled, the likelihood of exploitation is significantly reduced.
