Thread stuck while executing an Alter table query while there was short network outage at mariaDB server and recovery

Thread stuck while executing an Alter table query while there was short network outage at mariaDB server and recovered in few mins. While all other query execution failed with Connection reset and EOF stream exceptions, the Alter table(to add partitions) usually gets stuck(we noticed this usually happens with this query).

Would like to know if this is expected?

Few other info:
There is only connectTimeout configured.
We are considering configuring a socketTimeout and also upgrading the connector.
