Authenticated code execution via table-name encoding bypass
Published Oct 16, 2026 · Updated Oct 16, 2026
An encoding bypass in MariaDB Server allows remote authenticated users to execute code via table names with a legacy prefix. The #mysql50# table-name handler skips normal filesystem encoding and accesses legacy unencoded filenames. Exploitation requires database privileges; reported consequences also include server crashes, data corruption, and data exfiltration, but the precise SQL permissions are not disclosed.
