Description Thomas Leroy 2022-06-13 10:55:23 UTC
rh#2093149

Percona XtraBackup 2.4.20 unintentionally writes the command line to any resulting backup file output. This may include sensitive arguments passed at run time. In addition, when --history is passed at run time, this command line is also written to the PERCONA_SCHEMA.xtrabackup_history table. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2020-10997.

Comment 1 Thomas Leroy 2022-06-13 10:58:29 UTC
It seems that this bug was introduced in the fix for CVE-2020-10997 bsc#1170644.
As long as CVE-2020-10997 remains unfixed, we are not affected.
