<p>
|
|
MySQL fails to properly validate input for authenticated users with
|
|
INSERT and DELETE privileges (CAN-2005-0709 and CAN-2005-0710).
|
|
Furthermore MySQL uses predictable filenames when creating temporary
|
|
files with CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE (CAN-2005-0711).
|
|
</p>

|

|
|
<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
An attacker with INSERT and DELETE privileges could exploit this to
|
|
manipulate the mysql table or accessing libc calls, potentially leading
|
|
to the execution of arbitrary code with the permissions of the user
|
|
running MySQL. An attacker with CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE privileges could
|
|
exploit this to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack.
|
|
</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 --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-db/mysql-4.0.24"</code>
