The version of MySQL running on the remote host is 8.0.x prior to 8.0.22. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities, including the following, as noted in the October 2020 Critical Patch Update advisory:

  - Vulnerability in the MySQL Server product of Oracle MySQL (component: Server: Security: LDAP Auth).   Supported versions that are affected are 8.0.21 and prior. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows   low privileged attacker with access to the physical communication segment attached to the hardware   where the MySQL Server executes to compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability   can result in takeover of MySQL Server (CVE-2020-14878).

  - Vulnerability in the MySQL Server product of Oracle MySQL (component: Server: DML). Supported versions   that are affected are 8.0.21 and prior. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high privileged attacker   with network access via multiple protocols to compromise MySQL Server.
