DescriptionCVE.org

An issue was discovered in MariaDB Server before 11.4.10, 11.5.x through 11.8.x before 11.8.6, and 12.x before 12.2.2. If the caching_sha2_password authentication plugin is installed, and some user accounts are configured to use it, a large packet can crash the server because sha256_crypt_r uses alloca.

AnalysisAI

Denial of service in MariaDB Server through large packet crashes when the caching_sha2_password authentication plugin is enabled and accounts use it, due to unbounded stack allocation in sha256_crypt_r. Authenticated remote attackers can crash the server by sending a crafted large authentication packet. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Risk Assessment CVSS score of 6.5 with vector AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H reflects a network-reachable denial-of-service requiring low privilege authentication and no user interaction, causing availability impact only. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker with valid database credentials connects to the MariaDB server and sends a malformed or oversized authentication packet to the caching_sha2_password plugin during the authentication handshake. The sha256_crypt_r function processes the packet size without bounds checking, calling alloca() to allocate a stack buffer proportional to the packet size. …
Remediation Vendor-released patches are available: upgrade to MariaDB 11.4.10, 11.8.6, or 12.2.2 depending on your current version branch. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
