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.
