Johnny,
Thanks. I needed this to present as 'ammo' for not using a 3rd-party
MySQL repo to address these security issues.

Looks like a series of vulnerability alerts for Oracle MySQL have been

CVE-2018-2646, CVE-2018-2665 (all three medium). This affects versions
5.7.20 and prior. I know CentOS/RedHat usually do backports--anybody
know if this is the case, or do we have to go 'outside' now, and get the
MySQL repository to use, for the latest and greatest?

Red Hat no longer uses mysql in EL7 .. it uses mariadb.
They will backport any security updates for the mysql in EL6.
