Detail
| Javier Fernandez-Sanguino Pena from the Debian Security Audit Project discoverd a temporary file vulnerability in the mysqlaccess script of MySQL that could allow an unprivileged user to let root overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack and could also could unveil the contents of a temporary file which might contain sensitive information. For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in version 3.23.49-8.9. For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in version 4.0.23-3 of mysql-dfsg and in version 4.1.8a-6 of mysql-dfsg-4.1. We recommend that you upgrade your mysql packages. |
