NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream puppet-module-puppetlabs-mysql package and not the puppet-module-puppetlabs-mysql package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

puppetlabs-mysql 3.1.0 through 3.6.0 allow remote attackers to bypass authentication by leveraging creation of a database account without a password when a 'mysql_user' user parameter contains a host with a netmask.
