Heads up:

I found this today: https://legalhackers.com/advisories/MySQL-Maria-Percona-RootPrivEsc-CVE-2016-6664-5617-Exploit.html

but I did not see anything on the mariadb web site.

It appears that the workaround for now is the update the /etc/mysql/my.cnf to add to the [mysqld] entry:

[mysqld]
port            = 3306
socket          = /run/mysqld/mysqld.sock
datadir         = /srv/mysql
skip-external-locking
key_buffer_size = 16M
max_allowed_packet = 1M
sort_buffer_size = 512K
net_buffer_length = 16K
myisam_sort_buffer_size = 8M

syslog   <--------  add this

but expect a new release soon.
