The version of mysql56 installed on the remote host is prior to 5.6.50-1.38. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS-2021-1464 advisory.
Vulnerability in the MySQL Server product of Oracle MySQL (component: Server: Stored Procedure). Supported versions that are affected are 5.6.49 and prior, 5.7.31 and prior and 8.0.21 and prior. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows high 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. CVSS 3.1 Base Score 4.9 (Availability impacts). CVSS Vector: (CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). (CVE-2020-14672)
Vulnerability in the MySQL Server product of Oracle MySQL (component: Server: FTS). Supported versions that are affected are 5.6.49 and prior, 5.7.31 and prior and 8.0.21 and prior.
