Category:	Databases
Title:	MySQL Denial of Service (infinite loop) Vulnerabilities
Summary:	Check for the version of MySQL
Description:	Overview: The host is running MySQL and is prone to denial of service vulnerabilities. Vulnerability Insight: The flaws are due to: - Performing a user-variable assignment in a logical expression that is calculated and stored in a temporary table for GROUP BY, then causing the expression value to be used after the table is created, which causes the expression to be re-evaluated instead of accessing its value from the table. - An error in multiple invocations of a (1) prepared statement or (2) stored procedure that creates a query with nested JOIN statements. Impact: Successful exploitation could allow users to cause a denial of service and to execute arbitrary code. Impact Level: Application Affected Software/OS: MySQL 5.1 before 5.1.51 and 5.5 before 5.5.6 Fix: Upgrade to MySQL version 5.1.51 or 5.5.6 For updates refer to http://dev.mysql.com/downloads References: http://secunia.com/advisories/42875 http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=54568 http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/news-5-5-6.html http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/news-5-1-51.html
