"Updated mysql packages that fix various security issues, as well as a
number of bugs, are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1.

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

A number security issues that affect the mysql server have been
reported :

Oleksandr Byelkin discovered that 'ALTER TABLE ... RENAME' checked the
CREATE/INSERT rights of the old table instead of the new one. The
Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the name CVE-2004-0835 to this issue.

Lukasz Wojtow discovered a buffer overrun in the mysql_real_connect
function. In order to exploit this issue an attacker would need to
force the use of a malicious DNS server (CVE-2004-0836).

Dean Ellis discovered that multiple threads ALTERing the same (or
different) MERGE tables to change the UNION could cause the server to
crash or stall (CVE-2004-0837).

Sergei Golubchik discovered that if a user is granted privileges to a
database with a name containing an underscore ('_'), the user also
gains the ability to grant privileges to other databases with similar
names (CVE-2004-0957).

Additionally, the following minor temporary file vulnerabilities were
discovered :

  - Stan Bubroski and Shaun Colley found a temporary file
    vulnerability in the mysqlbug script (CVE-2004-0381). -
    A temporary file vulnerability was discovered in
    mysqld_multi (CVE-2004-0388). - Jeroen van Wolffelaar
    discovered an temporary file vulnerability in the
    mysqlhotcopy script when using the scp method
    (CVE-2004-0457).

All users of mysql should upgrade to these updated packages, which
resolve these issues and also include fixes for a number of small
bugs."
