DESCRIPTION:
Kingcope has reported multiple vulnerabilities in MySQL, which can be
exploited by malicious users to cause a DoS (Denial of Service) and
compromise a vulnerable system and by malicious people to conduct
brute force attacks.

1) An error when processing a database name within certain functions
when checking access rights can be exploited to cause a stack-based
buffer overflow.

This may be related to vulnerability #1:
SA51008

2) An error when deleting a table can be exploited to cause a
heap-based buffer overflow.

3) An error when handling the COM_BINLOG_DUMP command can be
exploited to crash the daemon.

4) An error when handling authentication errors can be exploited to
enumerate valid user accounts.

Successful exploitation of vulnerabilities #1 and #2 may allow
execution of arbitrary code.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions 5.1.53 and 5.5.19 .
Other versions may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
No official solution is currently available.
