+Package: mysql
+Vulnerability: arbitrary code execution
+OpenPKG Specific: no
+
+Affected Releases: Affected Packages: Corrected Packages:
+OpenPKG CURRENT <= mysql-4.0.14-20030904 >= mysql-4.0.15-20030910
+OpenPKG 1.3 <= mysql-4.0.14-1.3.1 >= mysql-4.0.14-1.3.2
+OpenPKG 1.2 <= mysql-3.23.54a-1.2.3 >= mysql-3.23.54a-1.2.4
+
+Dependent Packages: none
+
+Description:
+ Frank Denis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> reported a vulnerability [0] in MySQL
+ [1] affecting MySQL3 versions 3.0.57 and earlier and MySQL4 versions
+ 4.0.14 and earlier. Passwords of MySQL users are stored in the "User"
+ table, part of the "mysql" database, specifically in the "Password"
+ field. The passwords are hashed and stored as a 16 characters
+ long hexadecimal value, specifically in the "Password" field.
+ Unfortunately, a function involved in password checking misses correct
+ bounds checking. By filling a "Password" field a value wider than 16
+ characters, a buffer overflow will occur. The Common Vulnerabilities
+ and Exposures (CVE) project assigned the id CAN-2003-0780 [2] to the
+ problem.
+
+ Please check whether you are affected by running "<prefix>/bin/rpm -q
+ mysql". If you have the "mysql" package installed and its version is
+ affected (see above), we recommend that you immediately upgrade it
+ (see Solution). [3][4]
+
+Solution:
+ Select the updated source RPM appropriate for your OpenPKG release
+ [5][6], fetch it from the OpenPKG FTP service [7][8] or a mirror
+ location, verify its integrity [9], build a corresponding binary RPM
+ from it [3] and update your OpenPKG installation by applying the binary
+ RPM [4]. For the current release OpenPKG 1.3, perform the following
+ operations to permanently fix the security problem (for other releases
+ adjust accordingly).
+
+ $ ftp ftp.openpkg.org
+ ftp> bin
+ ftp> cd release/1.3/UPD
+ ftp> get mysql-4.0.14-1.3.2.src.rpm
+ ftp> bye
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm -v --checksig mysql-4.0.14-1.3.2.src.rpm
+ $ <prefix>/bin/rpm --rebuild mysql-4.0.14-1.3.2.src.rpm
+ $ su -
+ # <prefix>/bin/rpm -Fvh <prefix>/RPM/PKG/mysql-4.0.14-1.3.2.*.rpm
