Vulnerability in the MySQL Server product of Oracle MySQL (component: Server: Information Schema). Supported versions that are affected are 8.0.0-8.0.45, 8.4.0-8.4.8 and 9.0.0-9.6.0. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized read access to a subset of MySQL Server accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 2.7 (Confidentiality impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:N/A:N).
AnalysisAI
Information disclosure in Oracle MySQL Server's Information Schema component allows high-privileged remote attackers to read an unauthorized subset of MySQL Server data across three major version lines. Affected are versions 8.0.0-8.0.45, 8.4.0-8.4.8, and 9.0.0-9.6.0. No public exploit code exists, EPSS exploitation probability sits at 0.03% (7th percentile), and CISA has not added this to KEV - all signals converge on this being a low-priority, low-severity finding appropriate for routine patch cycle treatment.
Technical ContextAI
MySQL Server's Information Schema is a read-only metadata repository exposing database structure, table definitions, column metadata, user grants, and server configuration to authenticated sessions. CWE-200 (Exposure of Sensitive Information to an Unauthorized Actor) indicates the root cause is an access-control deficiency in how the Information Schema filters or presents data to high-privileged callers, allowing reads beyond intended scope. The flaw exists across the Oracle MySQL Server product family confirmed via CPE cpe:2.3:a:oracle_corporation:mysql_server, spanning the 8.0.x LTS-era branch, the newer 8.4.x branch, and the entire 9.x line through 9.6.0. The vulnerability is accessible over the network via multiple MySQL-supported protocols (classic MySQL protocol and X Protocol), consistent with the AV:N vector.
RemediationAI
Apply Oracle's patches from the April 2026 Critical Patch Update advisory at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuapr2026.html. Specific fixed version numbers above the affected ceilings (8.0.45, 8.4.8, 9.6.0) are not independently confirmed in available references - consult the Oracle CPU directly to identify the minimum patched release for your branch. As a compensating control prior to patching, audit and reduce the number of accounts holding high MySQL privileges (DBA role, SUPER privilege, or equivalent), since the vulnerability is only reachable by PR:H accounts; removing unnecessary high-privilege grants directly limits exploitability without service disruption. Additionally, review INFORMATION_SCHEMA query patterns in application logs to establish a baseline and detect anomalous enumeration attempts. These controls carry no functional side effects for properly scoped deployments.
