Please update MySQL to 5.7.28
Oracle hasn't released a FreeBSD version of the latest release yet. For completeness, here's the vulnerability & CVE info: https://vuxml.FreeBSD.org/freebsd/fc91f2ef-fd7b-11e9-a1c7-b499baebfeaf.html https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuoct2019.html#AppendixMSQL
Any idea why Oracle didn't release 5.7.28 for FreeBSD yet?
(In reply to Christos Chatzaras from comment #2) This is pretty normal. FreeBSD is generally the last platform to be released, usually a few weeks after the rest. Once it has been released mmokhi and/or others probably need some time as well before the port gets updated.
Oracle will not be releasing any new updates for 5.7 for FreeBSD, they have marked it End of Life - https://www.mysql.com/support/eol-notice.html
As far as i can see, FreeBSD uses mysql-boost-5.7.28.tar.gz and not the FreeBSD-specific archive. So this shouldn't really be a problem and 5.7.28 should build and work fine. Looks like many CMakeLists fail and need to be rebuilt. See NetBSD -> https://github.com/NetBSD/pkgsrc/commit/447347f88fb0becd10a6624ba89894914cf6345a#diff-197f37456210f2eefaac0f44a28aeb63
Created attachment 209389 [details] Update to 5.7.28
Hello, the maintainer is unfortunately very busy at the moment, and I am currently taking over his work. Please give me a hand: does the client still need to be changed?
