Stefan Esser from e-matters[1] discovered several vulnerabilities in the MySQL code that affect both the server and the client library (libmysql) of MySQL. The server vulnerabilities can be exploited to crash the MySQL server, bypass password restrictions or even execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running the server process. The library ones consist in an arbitrary size heap overflow and a memory addressing problem that can be both exploited to crash or execute arbitrary code in programs linked against libmysql. More details about each vulnerability can be found in the e-matters security advisory[2]. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) is tracking these issues with the names CAN-2002-1373, CAN-2002-1374, CAN-2002-1375 and CAN-2002-1376. SOLUTION We recommend that all MySQL users upgrade their packages as soon as possible. IMPORTANT: after the upgrade the mysql service must be restarted manually. In order to do that, run the following command as root: # /sbin/service mysql restart It is also recomended to restart all programs linked against libmysql. A list of such programs in execution can be obtained with the following command: # /usr/sbin/lsof | grep libmysql REFERENCES: 1.http://www.e-matters.de/ 2.http://security.e-matters.de/advisories/042002.html 3.http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2002-1373 4.http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2002-1374 5.http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2002-1375 6.http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2002-1376 UPDATED PACKAGES ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/6.0/RPMS/MySQL-3.23.36-14U60_3cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/6.0/RPMS/MySQL-bench-3.23.36-14U60_3cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/6.0/RPMS/MySQL-client-3.23.36-14U60_3cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/6.0/RPMS/MySQL-devel-3.23.36-14U60_3cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/6.0/RPMS/MySQL-devel-static-3.23.36-14U60_3cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/6.0/RPMS/MySQL-doc-3.23.36-14U60_3cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/6.0/SRPMS/MySQL-3.23.36-14U60_3cl.src.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/MySQL-3.23.36-14U70_3cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/MySQL-bench-3.23.36-14U70_3cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/MySQL-client-3.23.36-14U70_3cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/MySQL-devel-3.23.36-14U70_3cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/MySQL-devel-static-3.23.36-14U70_3cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/RPMS/MySQL-doc-3.23.36-14U70_3cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/7.0/SRPMS/MySQL-3.23.36-14U70_3cl.src.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/MySQL-3.23.46-4U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/MySQL-bench-3.23.46-4U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/MySQL-client-3.23.46-4U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/MySQL-devel-3.23.46-4U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/MySQL-devel-static-3.23.46-4U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/RPMS/MySQL-doc-3.23.46-4U80_2cl.i386.rpm ftp://atualizacoes.conectiva.com.br/8/SRPMS/MySQL-3.23.46-4U80_2cl.src.rpm ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS Users of Conectiva Linux version 6.0 or higher may use apt to perform upgrades of RPM packages: - run: apt-get update - after that, execute: apt-get upgrade Detailed instructions reagarding the use of apt and upgrade examples can be found at http://distro.conectiva.com.br/atualizacoes/#apt?idioma=en - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- All packages are signed with Conectiva's GPG key.
