[USN-109-1] MySQL vulnerability

[Martin Pitt]

================================================== =========
Ubuntu Security Notice USN-109-1 April 06, 2005
mysql-dfsg vulnerability
CAN-2004-0957
================================================== =========

A security issue affects the following Ubuntu releases:

Ubuntu 4.10 (Warty Warthog)

The following packages are affected:

mysql-server

The problem can be corrected by upgrading the affected package to
version 4.0.20-2ubuntu1.5. In general, a standard system upgrade is
sufficient to effect the necessary changes.

Details follow:

USN-32-1 fixed a database privilege escalation vulnerability; original
advisory text:

"If a user was granted privileges to a database with a name
containing an underscore ("_"), the user also gained the ability to
grant privileges to other databases with similar names.
(CAN-2004-0957)"

Recently a corner case was discovered where this vulnerability can
still be exploited, so another update is necessary.
