The version of mysql57 installed on the remote host is prior to 5.7.42-1.19. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS-2023-1768 advisory.
Vulnerability in the MySQL Server product of Oracle MySQL (component: Server: Security: Privileges).
Supported versions that are affected are 5.7.41 and prior and 8.0.30 and prior. Easily exploitable vulnerability allows unauthenticated 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. (CVE-2023-21912)
Vulnerability in the MySQL Server product of Oracle MySQL (component: Client programs). Supported versions that are affected are 5.7.41 and prior and 8.0.32 and prior. Difficult to exploit vulnerability allows low privileged attacker with network access via multiple protocols to compromise MySQL Server. Successful attacks require human interaction from a person other than the attacker. Successful attacks of this vulnerability can result in takeover of MySQL Server. (CVE-2023-21980)
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
