| Exploitation Conditions | Exploitation requires the affected RAPID (HeatWave analytics) component to be in use within MySQL Server or MySQL Cluster versions 9.7.0-9.7.3 or 26.7.0-26.7.1, and the attacker must already hold high-level database privileges (PR:H) and have network access over one of the supported MySQL protocols. The vulnerability is explicitly difficult to exploit (AC:H), implying dependence on specific server state, timing, or crafted input conditions rather than a trivial trigger. Limiting factors that reduce realistic risk: the high privilege prerequisite means only an already-trusted/authenticated actor can exploit it, there is no user-interaction vector that broadens reach to end users, and impact is confined to availability with no data exposure or modification. |
| Impact | This is a low-to-moderate real-world priority despite being in a ubiquitous product. The CVSS 3.1 base score is only 4.4, and the vector (AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H) establishes meaningful barriers: although the attack vector is network-based over multiple protocols, exploitation is explicitly 'difficult' (AC:H) and requires a high-privileged attacker (PR:H) who already holds elevated database privileges. The only impact is availability (A:H) - a hang or repeatable crash (complete DoS) - with no confidentiality or integrity consequence. No EPSS score was provided in the input, the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV, and no public proof-of-concept is referenced, so there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The combination of high complexity, high required privilege, and availability-only impact means an attacker able to exploit this already has substantial authorized access, limiting the marginal risk. The signals are internally consistent (no conflict between CVSS vector and description), so the main caveat is simply the absence of EPSS/exploitation telemetry rather than contradictory data. |
| Exploit ScenarioDerived | An attacker who already possesses high-privileged credentials on a MySQL Server or Cluster instance running the affected RAPID (HeatWave) component connects over the network via one of several supported protocols and issues a specially crafted sequence that triggers a hang or repeatable crash, producing a complete denial of service. Because the flaw is rated difficult to exploit (AC:H), reliable triggering likely requires specific timing, state, or query conditions. No public exploit code is identified at time of analysis. |

Alert meAnalysisAIv1 – Oct 21, 2026
Denial of service in Oracle MySQL Server and MySQL Cluster's RAPID (HeatWave analytics) component affects MySQL Server 9.7.0-9.7.3 and 26.7.0-26.7.1 and MySQL Cluster 9.7.0-9.7.3 and 26.7.0-26.7.1. A network-based attacker who already holds high database privileges can, under difficult-to-satisfy conditions, hang or repeatedly crash the server, causing complete availability loss while confidentiality and integrity remain unaffected. No public exploit code or active exploitation is identified in the provided intelligence, and the high privilege and high complexity prerequisites keep real-world priority low-to-moderate.
RemediationAI
Apply the Oracle Critical Patch Update October 2026 remediation for MySQL Server and MySQL Cluster, upgrading affected 9.7.0-9.7.3 and 26.7.0-26.7.1 installations to a vendor-fixed release; the provided data does not specify an exact fixed build, so confirm the target version in the Oracle advisory at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuoct2026.html. If patching must be deferred, reduce exposure by restricting network access to MySQL protocols to trusted management networks, auditing and minimizing accounts with high privileges, and removing or disabling RAPID/HeatWave analytics where it is not required-accepting the operational trade-off of losing that analytics capability. Monitor for hangs or repeated crashes and prioritize patching only systems where RAPID is enabled and high-privilege network access is broadly granted, since low-privilege users and systems without RAPID are outside the assessed prerequisite set.

Technical ContextAI · show details
The issue resides in the Server: RAPID component, Oracle's analytics/HeatWave-related subsystem in MySQL Server and MySQL Cluster. The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H describes an availability-only flaw reachable over supported MySQL protocols by a highly privileged account, with no user interaction and no scope change; the high attack complexity indicates exploitation depends on specific server state, timing, or crafted inputs rather than a simple request. No CWE is assigned in the provided data, so the exact root-cause class (for example, resource exhaustion, memory corruption, or logic error) is not publicly classified; the observable effect is a hang or repeatable crash. No CPE strings or public exploit details are provided.

DescriptionCVE.org
Vulnerability in the MySQL Server, MySQL Cluster product of Oracle MySQL (component: Server: RAPID). Supported versions that are affected are MySQL Server: 9.7.0-9.7.3, 26.7.0-26.7.1; MySQL Cluster: 9.7.0-9.7.3 and 26.7.0-26.7.1. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows high privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise MySQL Server, MySQL Cluster. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of MySQL Server, MySQL Cluster. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 4.4 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H).
