USN274-1 : mysql-dfsg vulnerability Vulnerability Scan
Vulnerability Scan Summary
mysql-dfsg vulnerability
Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Test
Synopsis :
These remote packages are missing security patches :
- libmysqlclient-dev
- libmysqlclient12
- libmysqlclient12-dev
- mysql-client
- mysql-common
- mysql-server
Description :
A logging bypass was discovered in the MySQL query parser. A local
attacker could exploit this by inserting NUL characters into query
strings (even into comments), which would cause the query to be logged
incompletely.
This only affects you if you enabled the 'log' parameter in the MySQL
configuration.
Solution :
Upgrade to :
- libmysqlclient-dev-4.0.20-2ubuntu1.7 (Ubuntu 4.10)
- libmysqlclient12-4.0.24-10ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.10)
- libmysqlclient12-dev-4.0.24-10ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.10)
- mysql-client-4.0.24-10ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.10)
- mysql-common-4.0.24-10ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.10)
- mysql-server-4.0.24-10ubuntu2.1 (Ubuntu 5.10)
