MariaDB 5.1 Support: Frequently Asked Questions
Is the MariaDB 5.1 still supported?
MariaDB ended support for the MariaDB 5.1 on Feb 1, 2015 — no more patches or fixes from the vendor. Third-party support keeps it covered: our engineers manage issues, remediate vulnerabilities, and help you maintain compliance for as long as you run it.
When is the MariaDB 5.1 end of service life (EOSL) date?

| CVE | Severity | CVSS | Published | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CVE-2012-3163 | HIGH | 9.0 | Oct 17, 2012 | Unspecified vulnerability in the MySQL Server component in Oracle MySQL 5.1.64 and earlier, and 5.5.26 and earlier, allows remote authenticated users to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to Information Schema. |
| CVE-2017-15365 | HIGH | 8.8 | Jan 25, 2018 | sql/event_data_objects.cc in MariaDB before 10.1.30 and 10.2.x before 10.2.10 and Percona XtraDB Cluster before 5.6.37-26.21-3 and 5.7.x before 5.7.19-29.22-3 allows remote authenticated users with SQL access to bypass intended access restrictions and replicate data definition language (DDL) statements to cluster nodes by leveraging incorrect ordering of DDL replication and ACL checking. |
| CVE-2015-2325 | HIGH | 7.8 | Jan 14, 2020 | The compile_branch function in PCRE before 8.37 allows context-dependent attackers to compile incorrect code, cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds heap read and crash), or possibly have other unspecified impact via a regular expression with a group containing a forward reference repeated a large number of times within a repeated outer group that has a zero minimum quantifier. |
| CVE-2017-15945 | HIGH | 7.8 | Oct 27, 2017 | The installation scripts in the Gentoo dev-db/mysql, dev-db/mariadb, dev-db/percona-server, dev-db/mysql-cluster, and dev-db/mariadb-galera packages before 2017-09-29 have chown calls for user-writable directory trees, which allows local users to gain privileges by leveraging access to the mysql account for creation of a link. |
| CVE-2023-5157 | HIGH | 7.5 | Sep 27, 2023 | A vulnerability was found in MariaDB. An OpenVAS port scan on ports 3306 and 4567 allows a malicious remote client to cause a denial of service. |
| CVE-2022-27449 | HIGH | 7.5 | Apr 14, 2022 | MariaDB Server v10.9 and below was discovered to contain a segmentation fault via the component sql/item_func.cc:148. |
| CVE-2022-27385 | HIGH | 7.5 | Apr 12, 2022 | An issue in the component Used_tables_and_const_cache::used_tables_and_const_cache_join of MariaDB Server v10.7 and below was discovered to allow attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via specially crafted SQL statements. |
| CVE-2021-46669 | HIGH | 7.5 | Feb 1, 2022 | MariaDB through 10.5.9 allows attackers to trigger a convert_const_to_int use-after-free when the BIGINT data type is used. |
| CVE-2017-3302 | HIGH | 7.5 | Feb 12, 2017 | Crash in libmysqlclient.so in Oracle MySQL before 5.6.21 and 5.7.x before 5.7.5 and MariaDB through 5.5.54, 10.0.x through 10.0.29, 10.1.x through 10.1.21, and 10.2.x through 10.2.3. |
| CVE-2014-0001 | HIGH | 7.5 | Jan 31, 2014 | Buffer overflow in client/mysql.cc in Oracle MySQL and MariaDB before 5.5.35 allows remote database servers to cause a denial of service (crash) and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long server version string. |
| CVE-2012-3158 | HIGH | 7.5 | Oct 16, 2012 | Unspecified vulnerability in the MySQL Server component in Oracle MySQL 5.1.64 and earlier, and 5.5.26 and earlier, allows remote attackers to affect confidentiality, integrity, and availability via unknown vectors related to Protocol. |
| CVE-2009-4484 | HIGH | 7.5 | Dec 30, 2009 | Multiple stack-based buffer overflows in the CertDecoder::GetName function in src/asn.cpp in TaoCrypt in yaSSL before 1.9.9, as used in mysqld in MySQL 5.0.x before 5.0.90, MySQL 5.1.x before 5.1.43, MySQL 5.5.x through 5.5.0-m2, and other products, allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (memory corruption and daemon crash) by establishing an SSL connection and sending an X.509 client certificate with a crafted name field, as demonstrated by mysql_overflow1 |
| CVE-2020-28912 | HIGH | 7.0 | Dec 24, 2020 | With MariaDB running on Windows, when local clients connect to the server over named pipes, it's possible for an unprivileged user with an ability to run code on the server machine to intercept the named pipe connection and act as a man-in-the-middle, gaining access to all the data passed between the client and the server, and getting the ability to run SQL commands on behalf of the connected user. This occurs because of an incorrect security descriptor. This affects MariaDB Server before 10.1.4 |
| CVE-2013-0389 | MEDIUM | 6.8 | Jan 17, 2013 | Unspecified vulnerability in the Server component in Oracle MySQL 5.1.66 and earlier, and 5.5.28 and earlier, allows remote authenticated users to affect availability via unknown vectors related to Server Optimizer. |
| CVE-2013-0384 | MEDIUM | 6.8 | Jan 17, 2013 | Unspecified vulnerability in the Server component in Oracle MySQL 5.1.66 and earlier, and 5.5.28 and earlier, allows remote authenticated users to affect availability via unknown vectors related to Information Schema. |
| CVE-2012-5060 | MEDIUM | 6.8 | Jan 17, 2013 | Unspecified vulnerability in the Server component in Oracle MySQL 5.1.65 and earlier and 5.5.27 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to affect availability, related to GIS Extension. |
| CVE-2012-3177 | MEDIUM | 6.8 | Oct 17, 2012 | Unspecified vulnerability in the MySQL Server component in Oracle MySQL 5.1.65 and earlier, and 5.5.27 and earlier, allows remote authenticated users to affect availability via unknown vectors related to Server. |
| CVE-2012-1703 | MEDIUM | 6.8 | May 3, 2012 | Unspecified vulnerability in the MySQL Server component in Oracle MySQL 5.1.61 and earlier, and 5.5.21 and earlier, allows remote authenticated users to affect availability via unknown vectors related to Server Optimizer, a different vulnerability than CVE-2012-1690. |
| CVE-2013-0385 | MEDIUM | 6.6 | Jan 17, 2013 | Unspecified vulnerability in the Server component in Oracle MySQL 5.1.66 and earlier, and 5.5.28 and earlier, allows local users to affect confidentiality and integrity via unknown vectors related to Server Replication. |
| CVE-2026-35549 | MEDIUM | 6.5 | Apr 3, 2026 | An issue was discovered in MariaDB Server before 11.4.10, 11.5.x through 11.8.x before 11.8.6, and 12.x before 12.2.2. If the caching_sha2_password authentication plugin is installed, and some user accounts are configured to use it, a large packet can crash the server because sha256_crypt_r uses alloca. |
