Description
A flaw was found in the Geographic Information System (GIS) component of MySQL. An authenticated remote attacker with high privileges can exploit this vulnerability over the network to cause a Denial of Service (DoS). Successful exploitation causes the database server to hang or crash repeatedly, disrupting service availability.
Statement
This vulnerability is rated as Moderate because exploitation requires high administrative privileges, preventing unauthenticated attackers or standard users from triggering the issue. Although an attacker with elevated credentials can induce a hang or crash of the database daemon, the impact is confined to availability without compromising confidentiality or integrity. Furthermore, supported database packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux do not include the vulnerable code and are not affected.
