Looks like a series of vulnerability alerts for Oracle MySQL have been issued: CVE-2018-2562, CVE-2018-2647 (both high), CVE-2018-2645, 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.
