Debian Security Advisory

DSA-1877-1 mysql-dfsg-5.0 -- denial of service/execution of arbitrary code

Date Reported:

02 Sep 2009

Affected Packages:

mysql-dfsg-5.0

Vulnerable:

Yes

Security database references:

In the Debian bugtracking system: Bug 536726.
In Mitre's CVE dictionary: CVE-2009-2446.

More information:

In MySQL 4.0.0 through 5.0.83, multiple format string vulnerabilities in the dispatch_command() function in libmysqld/sql_parse.cc in mysqld allow remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (daemon crash) and potentially the execution of arbitrary code via format string specifiers in a database name in a COM_CREATE_DB or COM_DROP_DB request.

For the stable distribution (lenny), this problem has been fixed in version 5.0.51a-24+lenny2.

For the old stable distribution (etch), this problem has been fixed in version 5.0.32-7etch41.

We recommend that you upgrade your mysql packages.

Fixed in:

Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 (etch)
