High

The version of F5 Networks BIG-IP installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the K000134469 advisory.

  • Vulnerability in the MySQL Server product of Oracle MySQL (component: Server: Connection Handling).
    Supported versions that are affected are 5.7.40 and prior and 8.0.31 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 partial denial of service (partial DOS) of MySQL Server. (CVE-2023-21963)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
