Score breakdown

Oracle MySQL before 5.7.3, Oracle MySQL Connector/C (aka libmysqlclient) before 6.1.3, and MariaDB before 5.5.44 use the --ssl option to mean that SSL is optional, which allows man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof servers via a cleartext-downgrade attack, aka a "BACKRONYM" attack.

Notes

tyhicks

The MySQL documentation makes the behavior of the --ssl option clear. It isn't known if they'll release updates for the 5.5/5.6 series.

mdeslaur

not included in 5.5.47 or 5.6.28. Marking this issue as "ignored" since it doesn't look like upstream is going to fix this in 5.5 and 5.6, and we aren't going to diverge from upstream.

Patch details

For informational purposes only. We recommend not to cherry-pick updates. How can I get the fixes?
