Two scripts contained in the package don't create temporary files in a secure fashion. This could allow a local attacker to overwrite files with the privileges of the user invoking the MySQL server, which is often the root user. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures identifies the following problems: CAN-2004-0381 The script mysqlbug in MySQL allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack. CAN-2004-0388 The script mysqld_multi in MySQL allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack. For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 3.23.49-8.6. For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems will be fixed in version 4.0.18-6 of mysql-dfsg. We recommend that you upgrade your mysql, mysql-dfsg and related packages. 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.
