How to install Mariadb in Linux if mariadb-libs is already installed

Hi. I am trying to fix a security vulnerability in Linux server, and the solution is to upgrade mariadb to latest version. Upon checking, there is no "mariadb" package installed using yum.

[root@ip ]# yum update mariadb Loaded plugins: priorities, update-motd, versionlock Package(s) mariadb available, but not installed. No packages marked for update

I checked the installed packages, and only mariadb-libs is installed.

[root@ip ]# rpm -qa | grep mariadb mariadb-libs-5.5.68-1.amzn2.0.1.x86_64

How do I safely upgrade mariadb to latest version considering my situation? Thank you in advance!
