Detail

Severl problems have been discovered in MySQL, a commonly used SQL database on Unix servers. The following problems have been identified by the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Project:

CAN-2004-0835

Oleksandr Byelkin noticed that ALTER TABLE ... RENAME checks CREATE/INSERT rights of the old table instead of the new one.

CAN-2004-0836

Lukasz Wojtow noticed a buffer overrun in the mysql_real_connect function.

CAN-2004-0837

Dean Ellis noticed that multiple threads ALTERing the same (or different) MERGE tables to change the UNION can cause the server to crash or stall.

For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 3.23.49-8.8.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems have been fixed in version 4.0.21-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your mysql and related packages and restart services linking against them (e.g. Apache/PHP).

Id Description
10660 MySQL ALTER TABLE/RENAME Forces Old Permission Checks

MySQL ALTER TABLE/RENAME contains a flaw that may allow a malicious user to force old permission checks. The issue is triggered when an error in ALTER TABLE/RENAME operation forces old permission checks on tables. It is possible that the flaw may allow an attacker to bypass permissions resulting in a loss of confidentiality and/or integrity.
10659 MySQL ALTER MERGE Tables to Change the UNION DoS

MySQL contains a flaw that may allow a remote denial of service. The issue is triggered when an attacker uses multiple threads to ALTER the same or different MERGE tables in order to change the UNION., and will result in loss of availability for the server.
10658 MySQL mysql_real_connect() Function Remote Overflow

A remote overflow exists in MySQL. MySQL fails to perform proper bounds checking on the 'mysql_real_connect' function resulting in a buffer overflow. With a specially crafted request, an attacker may cause a remote buffer overflow resulting in a loss of confidentiality and/or integrity.
