The version of mysql57 installed on the remote host is prior to 5.7.43-1.20. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS-2023-1878 advisory.

  • Vulnerability in the MySQL Server product of Oracle MySQL (component: Client programs). Supported versions that are affected are 5.7.42 and prior and 8.0.33 and prior. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized ability to cause a hang or frequently repeatable crash (complete DOS) of MySQL Server and unauthorized read access to a subset of MySQL Server accessible data. (CVE-2023-22053)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
