MySQL is a popular multi-threaded, multi-user SQL database server.

|
<p>
|
|
The processing of the COM_TABLE_DUMP command by a MySQL server fails to
|
|
properly validate packets that arrive from the client via a network
|
|
socket.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</description>
|
|
<impact type="low">
|
|
<p>
|
|
By crafting specific malicious packets an attacker could gather
|
|
confidential information from the memory of a MySQL server process, for
|
|
example results of queries by other users or applications. By using PHP
|
|
code injection or similar techniques it would be possible to exploit
|
|
this flaw through web applications that use MySQL as a database
|
|
backend.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Note that on 5.x versions it is possible to overwrite the stack and
|
|
execute arbitrary code with this technique. Users of MySQL 5.x are
|
|
urged to upgrade to the latest available version.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
There is no known workaround at this time.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All MySQL users should upgrade to the latest version.
