MySQL Community Server < 5.1.49 Multiple Vulnerabilities

medium Nessus Plugin ID 48759

Synopsis

The remote database server is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The version of MySQL Community Server installed on the remote host is earlier than 5.1.49 and thus potentially affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- DDL statements could cause the server to crash. (55039)

- Joins involving a table with a unique SET column could cause the server to crash. (54575)

- Incorrect handling of NULL arguments for IN or CASE operations involving the WITH ROLLUP modifier could cause the server to crash. (54477)

- A malformed argument to the BINLOG statement could cause the server to crash. (54393)

- Using TEMPORARY InnoDB tables with nullable columns could cause the server to crash. (54044)

- Alternate reads with two indexes on a table using the HANDLER interface could cause the server to crash.
(54007)

- Using EXPLAIN with queries of the form SELECT ... UNION ... ORDER BY (SELECT ... WHERE ...) could cause the server to crash. (52711)

- LOAD DATA INFILE did not check for SQL errors sent and even if errors were already reported, it sent an OK packet. Also, an assert was sometimes raised when it should not have been relating to client-server protocol checking in debug servers. (52512)

Solution

Upgrade to MySQL Community Server 5.1.49 or later.
