  - MariaDB mariadb-dump Utility Directory Traversal Remote Code Execution Vulnerability. This vulnerability
    allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected installations of MariaDB. Interaction with
    the mariadb-dump utility is required to exploit this vulnerability but attack vectors may vary depending
    on the implementation. The specific flaw exists within the handling of view names. The issue results from
    the lack of proper validation of a user-supplied path prior to using it in file operations. An attacker
    can leverage this vulnerability to execute code in the context of the current user. Was ZDI-CAN-27000.
    (CVE-2025-13699)
