{"id":"CVE-2026-101777","kind":"vulnerability","aliases":["CVE-2026-101777"],"related":[],"title":"MySQL Server: encryption component flaw allows crash and partial data read","description":"Vulnerability in the MySQL Server, MySQL Cluster product of Oracle MySQL (component: Server: Security: Encryption).  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. Easily exploitable 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 and  unauthorized read access to a subset of MySQL Server, MySQL Cluster accessible data. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 5.5 (Confidentiality and Availability impacts).
