Doc Text:
A flaw was found in MariaDB. An authenticated user can execute a database query containing embedded null bytes, which misleads the query cache information (qc_info) plugin. When the cached query details are later read from the information schema, the server accesses memory beyond the allocated buffer. This issue can lead to unauthorized information disclosure or cause a denial of service (DoS) by crashing the database server.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-10-09 17:32:37 UTC
MariaDB server is a community developed fork of MySQL server. From 10.6.1 until 10.6.28, 10.11.19, 11.4.13, 11.8.9, 12.3.3, and 13.0.2, the qc_info plugin could be confused by a query containing embedded null bytes. Reading information_schema.query_cache_info after such a query was cached could access data beyond the end of a heap-allocated buffer, potentially disclosing adjacent memory or crashing the server. This issue is fixed in versions 10.6.28, 10.11.19, 11.4.13, 11.8.9, 12.3.3, and 13.0.2.
