Oracle MySQL Enterprise Monitor DOS (July 2022 CPU)

high Nessus Plugin ID 163293

Synopsis

The remote host is affected by DOS

Description

The version of MySQL Enterprise Monitor installed on the remote host are affected by a denial of service as referenced in the July 2022 CPU advisory, via the initiation of the Authorization Request in an OAuth 2.0 Client Web and WebFlux application. A malicious user or attacker can send multiple requests initiating the Authorization Request for the Authorization Code Grant, which has the potential of exhausting system resources using a single session or multiple sessions.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Apply the appropriate patch according to the July 2022 Oracle Critical Patch Update advisory.
