Conectiva Security Announcement - MySQL

[CLA-2004:892] Conectiva Security Announcement - MySQL -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- CONECTIVA LINUX SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT - -------------------------------------------------------------------------- PACKAGE : MySQL SUMMARY : Fixes for several mysql vulnerabilities DATE : 2004-11-18 11:48:00 ID : CLA-2004:892 RELEVANT RELEASES : 9, 10 - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- DESCRIPTION MySQL[1] is a very popular SQL database. This announcement fixes several vulnerabilities discovered in MySQL: 1.CAN-2004-0835 Oleksandr Byelkin noticed[2] that ALTER TABLE ... RENAME checks CREATE/INSERT rights of the old table instead of the new one. 2.CAN-2004-0836 Lukasz Wojtow noticed[3] a buffer overrun in the mysql_real_connect() function. 3.CAN-2004-0837 Dean Ellis noticed[4] that multiple threads altering MERGE table UNIONs can cause the server to crash or stall. For Conectiva Linux 10, it also fixes a denial of service[5] with MATCH..AGAINST and a privilege escalation[6] on GRANT ALL ON `Foo\_Bar` SOLUTION We recommend that all MySQL users upgrade their packages as soon as possible. IMPORTANT: after the upgrade at Conectiva Linux 9, the mysql service must be restarted manually. In order to do that, run the following command as root: # /sbin/service mysql restart REFERENCES 1.http://www.mysql.com/products/mysql/ 2.http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=3270 3.http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=4017 4.http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=2408 5.http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=3870 6.http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=3933 UPDATED PACKAGES ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/10/SRPMS/mysql-4.0.15-62448U10 _1cl.src.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/10/RPMS/libmysqlclient-devel-4.0. 15-62448U10_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/10/RPMS/libmysqlclient-devel-stat ic-4.0.15-62448U10_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/10/RPMS/libmysqlclient12-4.0.15-6 2448U10_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/10/RPMS/mysql-4.0.15-62448U10_ 1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/10/RPMS/mysql-bench-4.0.15-624 48U10_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/10/RPMS/mysql-client-4.0.15-6244 8U10_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/10/RPMS/mysql-doc-4.0.15-62448 U10_1cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/SRPMS/MySQL-3.23.58-20507U 90_2cl.src.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/MySQL-3.23.58-20507U90 _2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/MySQL-bench-3.23.58-20 507U90_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/MySQL-client-3.23.58-205 07U90_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/MySQL-devel-3.23.58-205 07U90_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/MySQL-devel-static-3.23. 58-20507U90_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/9/RPMS/MySQL-doc-3.23.58-2050 7U90_2cl.i386.rpm ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS The apt tool can be used to perform RPM packages upgrades: - run: apt-get update - after that, execute: apt-get upgrade Detailed instructions regarding the use of apt and upgrade examples can be found at http://distro.conectiva.com.br/atualizacoes/#apt?idioma=en - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- All packages are signed with Conectiva's GPG key.
