The MySQL Database Server 8.0 must disable network functions, ports, protocols, and services deemed by the organization to be nonsecure, in accord with the Ports, Protocols, and Services Management (PPSM) guidance.
Use of nonsecure network functions, ports, protocols, and services exposes the system to avoidable threats.Rule Medium Severity -

The MySQL Database Server 8.0 must enforce access restrictions associated with changes to the configuration of the MySQL Database Server 8.0 or database(s).
Failure to provide logical access restrictions associated with changes to configuration may have significant effects on the overall security of the system. When dealing with access restrictions p...Rule Medium Severity -

Group -
The MySQL Database Server 8.0 must produce audit records of its enforcement of access restrictions associated with changes to the configuration of the MySQL Database Server 8.0 or database(s).
Without auditing the enforcement of access restrictions against changes to configuration, it would be difficult to identify attempted attacks and an audit trail would not be available for forensic ...Rule Medium Severity -

The MySQL Database Server 8.0 must allocate audit record storage capacity in accordance with organization-defined audit record storage requirements.
To ensure sufficient storage capacity for the audit logs, the Database Management System (DBMS) must be able to allocate audit record storage capacity. Although another requirement (SRG-APP-000515-...Rule Medium Severity -

The MySQL Database Server 8.0 must provide an immediate real-time alert to appropriate support staff of all audit log failures.
It is critical for the appropriate personnel to be aware if a system is at risk of failing to process audit logs as required. Without a real-time alert, security personnel may be unaware of an impe...Rule Medium Severity -

The MySQL Database Server 8.0 must prohibit the use of cached authenticators after an organization-defined time period.
If cached authentication information is out-of-date, the validity of the authentication information may be questionable.Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-APP-000389-DB-000372
Group -
The MySQL Database Server 8.0 must associate organization-defined types of security labels having organization-defined security label values with information in storage.
Without the association of security labels to information, there is no basis for the DBMS to make security-related access-control decisions. Security labels are abstractions representing the basic...Rule Medium Severity -

The MySQL Database Server 8.0 must enforce discretionary access control policies, as defined by the data owner, over defined subjects and objects.
Discretionary Access Control (DAC) is based on the notion that individual users are "owners" of objects and therefore have discretion over who should be authorized to access the object and in which...Rule Medium Severity -

The MySQL Database Server 8.0 must prevent non-privileged users from executing privileged functions, to include disabling, circumventing, or altering implemented security safeguards/countermeasures.
Preventing non-privileged users from executing privileged functions mitigates the risk that unauthorized individuals or processes may gain unnecessary access to information or privileges. System ...Rule Medium Severity -

The MySQL Database Server 8.0 must automatically terminate a user session after organization-defined conditions or trigger events requiring session disconnect.
This addresses the termination of user-initiated logical sessions in contrast to the termination of network connections associated with communications sessions (i.e., network disconnect). A logical...Rule Medium Severity -

The MySQL Database Server 8.0 must maintain the confidentiality and integrity of information during preparation for transmission.
Information can be either unintentionally or maliciously disclosed or modified during preparation for transmission, including, for example, during aggregation, at protocol transformation points, an...Rule Medium Severity -

MySQL database products must be a version supported by the vendor.
Unsupported commercial and database systems should not be used because fixes to newly identified bugs will not be implemented by the vendor. The lack of support can result in potential vulnerabilit...Rule High Severity -
