Unspecified vulnerability in the MySQL Server component in Oracle MySQL 5.5.19 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to affect availability via unknown vectors related to Server Optimizer.

Unknown vulnerability in MySQL 3.23.58 and earlier, when a local user has privileges for a database whose name includes a "_" (underscore), grants privileges to other databases that have similar names, which can allow the user to conduct unauthorized activities.

mysqlbug in MySQL allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the failed-mysql-bugreport temporary file.

MySQL 3.20 through 4.1.0 uses a weak algorithm for hashed passwords, which makes it easier for attackers to decrypt the password via brute force methods.

The default configuration of MySQL 3.20.32 through 3.23.52, when running on Windows, does set the bind address to the loopback interface, which allows remote attackers to connect to the database.

The default configuration in MySQL 3.20.32 through 3.23.52, when running on Windows, does not have logging enabled, which could allow remote attackers to conduct activities without detection.

The COM_CHANGE_USER command in MySQL 3.x before 3.23.54, and 4.x before 4.0.6, allows remote attackers to gain privileges via a brute force attack using a one-character password, which causes MySQL to only compare the provided password against the first character of the real password.

libmysqlclient client library in MySQL 3.x to 3.23.54, and 4.x to 4.0.6, does not properly verify length fields for certain responses in the (1) read_rows or (2) read_one_row routines, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code.

The COM_CHANGE_USER command in MySQL 3.x before 3.23.54, and 4.x to 4.0.6, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a long response.

Signed integer vulnerability in the COM_TABLE_DUMP package for MySQL 3.23.x before 3.23.54 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash or hang) in mysqld by causing large negative integers to be provided to a memcpy call.
