CVE-2019-2587: Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Server: Partition).

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2019-2587 is a MySQL Server availability flaw in the Partition subcomponent. An already high-privileged attacker with network access could make affected MySQL servers hang or crash repeatedly, causing denial of service. The cited record names Oracle MySQL Server 8.0.15 and prior as affected. Exposure is most relevant where MySQL Server 8.0.15 or earlier remains deployed and high-privileged database access is available over the network. Internet exposure is less central than privileged account and network access control. Treat this as a maintenance-priority availability risk. It is not documented as remotely exploitable by unauthenticated attackers, but unpatched business-critical MySQL systems could be deliberately crashed by a privileged network user. Mitigation focus: Upgrade affected MySQL Server deployments using Oracle or distribution vendor guidance.; Apply relevant Red Hat or Fedora security errata where those packages are used.; Restrict network access to MySQL administrative interfaces and trusted database clients..
