Secunia reports:
MySQL have some vulnerabilities, which can be exploited by malicious users to disclose potentially sensitive information and compromise a vulnerable system.
1) An error within the code that generates an error response to an invalid COM_TABLE_DUMP packet can be exploited by an authenticated client to disclosure certain memory content of the server process.
2) A boundary error within the handling of specially crafted invalid COM_TABLE_DUMP packets can be exploited by an authenticated client to cause a buffer overflow and allows arbitrary code execution.
3) An error within the handling of malformed login packets can be exploited to disclosure certain memory content of the server process in the error messages.
