NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mariadb-gssapi-server package and not the mariadb-gssapi-server package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

A remote code execution issue was discovered in MariaDB 10.2 before 10.2.37, 10.3 before 10.3.28, 10.4 before 10.4.18, and 10.5 before 10.5.9; Percona Server through 2021-03-03; and the wsrep patch through 2021-03-03 for MySQL.
