|
|
Jean-David Maillefer discovered a format string vulnerability in
|
|
time.cc where MySQL fails to properly handle specially formatted user
|
|
input to the date_format function.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
By specifying a format string as the first parameter to the date_format
|
|
function, an authenticated attacker could cause MySQL to crash,
|
|
resulting in a Denial of Service.
|
|
</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:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --verbose --oneshot ">=dev-db/mysql-4.1.21"</code>
