| We have discovered two flaws within the MySQL server that can be usedby any MySQL user to crash the server. Furthermore one of the flaws canbe used to bypass the MySQL password check or to execute arbitrary codewith the privileges of the user running mysqld.We have also discovered an arbitrary size heap overflow within the mysqlclient library and another vulnerability that allows to write '' to anymemory address. Both flaws could allow DOS attacks against or arbitrarycode execution within anything linked against libmysqlclient |
