Description

MySQL 5.0 before 5.0.92, 5.1 before 5.1.51, and 5.5 before 5.5.6 does not properly propagate type errors, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (server crash) via crafted arguments to extreme-value functions such as (1) LEAST and (2) GREATEST, related to KILL_BAD_DATA and a "CREATE TABLE ... SELECT."

Solution(s)

  • oracle-linux-upgrade-mysql
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-mysql-bench
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-mysql-devel
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-mysql-server
  • oracle-linux-upgrade-mysql-test
