Summary
The host is running MySQL and is prone to multiple denial of service vulnerabilities.
Insight
Insight
The flaws are due to: - An error in propagating the type errors, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via crafted arguments to extreme-value functions such as 'LEAST' or 'GREATEST'. - An unspecified error in vectors related to materializing a derived table that required a temporary table for grouping and user variable assignments. - An error in handling prepared statements that uses GROUP_CONCAT with the WITH ROLLUP modifier. - An error in handling a query that uses the GREATEST or LEAST function with a mixed list of numeric and LONGBLOB arguments.
