This is not the correct CVE for this MySQL vulnerability. https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2023-2650#VulnChangeHistorySection

Thank you for your feedback. This is a downstream patch mentioned in https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/cpuoct2023.html - We do not have the same splitting philosophy like the CVE project as explained at https://vuldb.com/?kb.splitting
