The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform a denial of service attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient sanitization of user-supplied data in the Arg_comparator::compare_real() function. A remote user can send specially crafted SQL statements to the affected application and perform a denial of service attack.
