Package        : mysql
Vulnerability  : privilege escalation
Problem-Type   : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Ids        : CAN-2003-0073, CAN-2003-0150

CAN-2003-0073: The mysql package contains a bug whereby dynamically
allocated memory is freed more than once, which could be deliberately
triggered by an attacker to cause a crash, resulting in a denial of
service condition.  In order to exploit this vulnerability, a valid
username and password combination for access to the MySQL server is
required.

CAN-2003-0150: The mysql package contains a bug whereby a malicious
user, granted certain permissions within mysql, could create a
configuration file which would cause the mysql server to run as root,
or any other user, rather than the mysql user.

For the stable distribution (woody) both problems have been fixed in
version 3.23.49-8.4.

The old stable distribution (potato) is only affected by
CAN-2003-0150, and this has been fixed in version 3.22.32-6.4.

For the unstable distribution (sid), CAN-2003-0073 was fixed in
version 4.0.12-2, and CAN-2003-0150 will be fixed soon.

We recommend that you update your mysql package.

Upgrade Instructions
- --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
        will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
        will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
