Origial advisory:

"AppSecInc Team SHATTER discovered a buffer overflow in the "CREATE
FUNCTION" statement. By specifying a specially crafted long function
name, a local or remote attacker with function creation privileges
could crash the server or execute arbitrary code with server
privileges.

However, the right to create function is usually not granted to
untrusted users."
