A flaw was found in the mysql-wsrep component of mariadb. Lack of input sanitization in wsrep_sst_method allows for command injection that can be exploited by a remote attacker to execute arbitrary commands on galera cluster nodes. This threatens the system's confidentiality, integrity, and availability. This flaw affects mariadb versions before 10.1.47, before 10.2.34, before 10.3.25, before 10.4.15 and before 10.5.6.
CVE-2020-15180
This critical-severity CVE scores 9.0 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 5.5%, top 8% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
