1. Summary:
An update for rh-mariadb100-mariadb is now available for Red Hat Software
Collections.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,
which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability
from the CVE link(s) in the References section.

3. Description:
MariaDB is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. For all
practical purposes, MariaDB is binary-compatible with MySQL.
The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version:
rh-mariadb100-mariadb (10.0.28).
Security Fix(es):
* It was discovered that the MariaDB logging functionality allowed writing
to MariaDB configuration files. An administrative database user, or a
database user with FILE privileges, could possibly use this flaw to run
arbitrary commands with root privileges on the system running the database
server. (CVE-2016-6662)
* A race condition was found in the way MariaDB performed MyISAM engine
table repair. A database user with shell access to the server running
mysqld could use this flaw to change permissions of arbitrary files
writable by the mysql system user. (CVE-2016-6663, CVE-2016-5616)
* This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the MariaDB database server.
Information about these flaws can be found on the Oracle Critical Patch
Update Advisory page, listed in the References section. (CVE-2016-3492,
CVE-2016-5612, CVE-2016-5624, CVE-2016-5626, CVE-2016-5629, CVE-2016-5630,
CVE-2016-8283)
4. Solution:
For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:
https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258
After installing this update, the MariaDB server daemon (mysqld) will be
restarted automatically.
