Package        : mysql
Vulnerability  : insecure temporary files
Problem-Type   : local
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID         : CAN-2005-0004

Javier Fernandez-Sanguino Pena from the Debian Security Audit Project
discoverd a temporary file vulnerability in the mysqlaccess script of
MySQL that could allow an unprivileged user to let root overwrite
arbitrary files via a symlink attack and could also could unveil the
contents of a temporary file which might contain sensitive
information.

For the stable distribution (woody) this problem has been fixed in
version 3.23.49-8.9.

For the unstable distribution (sid) this problem has been fixed in
version 4.0.23-3 of mysql-dfsg and in version 4.1.8a-6 of
mysql-dfsg-4.1.

We recommend that you upgrade your mysql packages.


Upgrade Instructions
- - --------------------

wget url
        will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
        will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
        will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
