Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling in sql/json_duality_view/dml.cc during JSON Duality View DML handling. An attacker can crash mysqld by sending an UPDATE request with a sub-object that is null or omitted, causing the server to look up a child in a null JSON object while matching the input JSON to the content tree. This affects low-privilege network clients using JSON Duality View UPDATE paths, resulting in a repeatable server hang or crash that denies service to users of the database.
