Security advisory
Vulnerability in the MySQL Connectors component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: Connector/C). Supported versions that are affected are 6.1.10 and earlier. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise MySQL Connectors. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of MySQL Connectors. Note: The documentation has also been updated for the correct way to use mysql_stmt_close(). Please see: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysql-stmt-execute.html, https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysql-stmt-fetch.html, https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysql-stmt-close.html, https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysql-stmt-error.html, https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysql-stmt-errno.html, and https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/mysql-stmt-sqlstate.html.
