Explanation
Cloud-SQL’s self-service maintenance feature lets you manually apply updates on demand-so you can patch the primary instance at 11-PM during your approved downtime rather than waiting for tomorrow’s window. Once the primary is updated and rebooted, you then repeat self-service maintenance on each read replica. This approach addresses the security vulnerability immediately while still operating within the agreed downtime.
