(Red Hat Issues Fix) MySQL May Let Remote Authenticated Users Access Restricted Tables or Crash the System
SecurityTracker Alert ID:  1011827
SecurityTracker URL:  http://securitytracker.com/id/1011827
CVE Reference:   CVE-2004-0835, CVE-2004-0837   (Links to External Site)
Date:  Oct 21 2004
Impact:   Denial of service via network, User access via local system
Fix Available:  Yes  Vendor Confirmed:  Yes  
Version(s): 3.23
Description:   Two vulnerabilities were reported in MySQL. A remote authenticated user may be able to gain elevated privileges. A remote authenticated user may be able to cause denial of service conditions.

In March 2004, Oleksandr Byelkin reported that an 'alter table [...] rename [...]' command will check the create/insert rights of the old table instead of the new table [CVE: CAN-2004-0835]. As a result, a user may be able to gain access to tables that the user is not authorized to access.

In January 2004, Dean Ellis reported that if multiple threads issue 'alter' commands against 'merge' tables to modify the 'union', the target server may crash [CVE: CAN-2004-0837].

The original bug reports are available at:

http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=3270
http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=2408

Impact:   A remote authenticated user may be able to gain elevated privileges.

A remote authenticated user may be able to cause denial of service conditions.

Solution:   Red Hat has released a fix.

                   Red Hat Security Advisory

Synopsis:          Updated mysql packages fix minor security issues and bugs
Advisory ID:       RHSA-2004:569-01
Issue date:        2004-10-20
Updated on:        2004-10-20
Product:           Red Hat Enterprise Linux
CVE Names:         CAN-2004-0381 CAN-2004-0388 CAN-2004-0457
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Summary:

Updated mysql packages that fix various temporary file security issues,
as well as a number of bugs, are now available.

2. Relevant releases/architectures:

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 - i386, ia64, ppc, ppc64, s390, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Desktop version 3 - i386, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux WS version 3 - i386, ia64, x86_64

3. Problem description:

MySQL is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server.

This update fixes a number of small bugs, including some potential
security problems associated with careless handling of temporary files.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org) has
assigned the names CAN-2004-0381, CAN-2004-0388, and CAN-2004-0457 to these
issues.

A number of additional security issues that affect mysql have been
corrected in the source package.  These include CAN-2004-0835,
CAN-2004-0836, CAN-2004-0837, and CAN-2004-0957.  Red Hat Enterprise Linux
3 does not ship with the mysql-server package and is therefore not affected
by these issues.

This update also allows 32-bit and 64-bit libraries to be installed
concurrently on the same system.

All users of mysql should upgrade to these updated packages, which resolve
these issues.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.  Use Red Hat
Network to download and update your packages.  To launch the Red Hat
Update Agent, use the following command:

    up2date

For information on how to install packages manually, refer to the
following Web page for the System Administration or Customization
guide specific to your system:

    http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/
