high Nessus Plugin ID 148053

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

A remote code execution issue was discovered in MariaDB. An untrusted search path leads to eval injection, in which a database SUPER user can execute OS commands after modifying wsrep_provider and wsrep_notify_cmd.

For Debian 9 stretch, this problem has been fixed in version 10.1.48-0+deb9u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your mariadb-10.1 packages.

For the detailed security status of mariadb-10.1 please refer to its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/mariadb-10.1

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
