Mandriva: Updated MySQL packages fix multiple Print E-mail
User Rating:      How can I rate this item?
Posted by Benjamin D. Thomas   
Mandrake MySQL 5.0.x did not update the DEFINER value of a view when the view is altered, which allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges via a sequence of statements including a CREATE SQL SECURITY DEFINER VIEW statement and an ALTER VIEW statement (CVE-2007-6303).

 Package : mysql
 Date    : January 19, 2008
 Affected: 2008.0

 Problem Description:
 
 MySQL 5.0.x did not update the DEFINER value of a view when the view
 is altered, which allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges
 via a sequence of statements including a CREATE SQL SECURITY DEFINER
 VIEW statement and an ALTER VIEW statement (CVE-2007-6303).
 
 The federated engine in MySQL 5.0.x, when performing a certain SHOW
 TABLE STATUS query, did not properly handle a response with a small
 number of columns, which could allow a remote MySQL server to cause
 a denial of service (federated handler crash and daemon crash)
 via a response that lacks the minimum required number of columns
 (CVE-2007-6304).
 
 The updated packages have been patched to correct these issues.
