CVE-2007-6303

Publication date 10 December 2007

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

MySQL 5.0.x before 5.0.51a, 5.1.x before 5.1.23, and 6.0.x before 6.0.4 does not update the DEFINER value of a view when the view is altered, which allows remote authenticated users to gain privileges via a sequence of statements including a CREATE SQL SECURITY DEFINER VIEW statement and an ALTER VIEW statement.

jdstrand

patch from debian works on gutsy and feisty. On edgy and dapper the test case fails (meaning the patch is incomplete).
