MariaDB server: Authorization bypass via ALTER TABLE ... CONVERT ... PARTITION

Published Nov 5, 2026 CVSS 3.1 · 8 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
MariaDB server is a community developed fork of MySQL server. From 10.11.1 until 10.11.19, 11.4.13, 11.8.9, 12.3.3, and 13.0.2, ALTER TABLE ... CONVERT ... PARTITION does not apply filename encoding to user-specified partition names before using them in filesystem path construction. An authenticated database user can use a partition name requiring filename escaping to make the conversion operate on table files the user is not authorized to access, allowing unauthorized table reads or modifications.
