Updated mysql packages that fix several security issues are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.

The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having important security impact. Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base scores, which give detailed severity ratings, are available for each vulnerability from the CVE links in the References section.

MySQL is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. It consists of the MySQL server daemon (mysqld) and many client programs and libraries.

This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the MySQL database server. Information about these flaws can be found on the Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory pages, listed in the References section. (CVE-2012-1688, CVE-2012-1690, CVE-2012-1703, CVE-2012-2749, CVE-2012-0540, CVE-2012-1689, CVE-2012-1734, CVE-2012-3163, CVE-2012-3158, CVE-2012-3177, CVE-2012-3166, CVE-2012-3173, CVE-2012-3150, CVE-2012-3180, CVE-2012-3167, CVE-2012-3197, CVE-2012-3160)

These updated packages upgrade MySQL to version 5.1.66. Refer to the MySQL release notes listed in the References section for a full list of changes.

All MySQL users should upgrade to these updated packages, which correct these issues. After installing this update, the MySQL server daemon (mysqld) will be restarted automatically.

Due to the non-disclosure of security patch information from     Oracle, we are forced to ship an upstream version update of MySQL     5.1. There are several known incompatible changes, which are     listed in /usr/share/doc/mysql-server/NEWS.Debian.gz.

Several issues have been discovered in the MySQL database server. The vulnerabilities are addressed by upgrading MySQL to a new upstream version, 5.1.63, which includes additional changes, such as performance improvements and corrections for data loss defects. These changes are described in the MySQL release notes.

 CVE-2012-2122, an authentication bypass vulnerability, occurs only  when MySQL has been built in with certain optimisations enabled. The  packages in Debian stable (squeeze) are not known to be affected by  this vulnerability. It is addressed in this update nonetheless, so  future rebuilds will not become vulnerable to this issue.

Versions of MySQL Community Server 5.5 earlier than 5.5.22 are potentially affected by multiple unspecified vulnerabilities.

Versions of MySQL 5.5 earlier than 5.5.22 are outdated and thus affected by the following vulnerabilities :

 - An error exists related to the included yaSSL component that could allow arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2012-0882)
 - Errors exist related to 'Server Optimizer', 'Server DML', 'Partition' and, in combination with InnoDB, 'HANDLER READ NEXT' that could allow denial of service attacks. (CVE-2012-1688, CVE-2012-1690, CVE-2012-1697, CVE-2012-1703, CVE-2012-2102)

The version of MySQL 5.1 installed on the remote host is earlier than 5.1.62. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - An error exists related to the included yaSSL     component that could allow arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2012-0882)

  - Errors exist related to 'Server Optimizer',     'Server DML', 'Partition' and, in combination with     InnoDB, 'HANDLER READ NEXT' that could allow denial of     service attacks. (CVE-2012-1688, CVE-2012-1690,     CVE-2012-1703, CVE-2012-2102)

The version of MySQL 5.5 installed on the remote host is earlier than 5.5.22. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - An error exists related to the included yaSSL     component that could allow arbitrary code execution.
    (CVE-2012-0882)

  - Errors exist related to 'Server Optimizer',     'Server DML', 'Partition' and, in combination with     InnoDB, 'HANDLER READ NEXT' that could allow denial of     service attacks. (CVE-2012-1688, CVE-2012-1690,     CVE-2012-1697, CVE-2012-1703, CVE-2012-2102)
