Signature Detail

DB: MySQL Login Handshake Information Disclosure

This signature detects attempts to exploit a known vulnerability against MySQL Database Server. A successful attack can lead to information disclosure. Attackers can exploit this issue to obtain sensitive information that may lead to future attacks.

Extended Description

MySQL is prone to multiple remote vulnerabilities: 1. A buffer-overflow vulnerability occurs because the software fails to perform sufficient boundary checks of user-supplied data before copying it to an insufficiently sized memory buffer. This issue allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary machine code in the context of affected database servers. Failed exploit attempts will likely crash the server, denying further service to legitimate users. 2. Two information-disclosure vulnerabilities occur because the software fails to sufficiently sanitize and check boundaries of user-supplied data. These issues allow remote users to gain access to potentially sensitive information that may aid in further attacks.
