+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Dormando reported a vulnerability within the handling of password
+ packets in the connection protocol (CVE-2007-3780). Andrei Elkin also
+ found that the "CREATE TABLE LIKE" command didn't require SELECT
+ privileges on the source table (CVE-2007-3781).
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ A remote unauthenticated attacker could use the first vulnerability to
+ make the server crash. The second vulnerability can be used by
+ authenticated users to obtain information on tables they are not
+ normally able to access.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All MySQL users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-db/mysql-5.0.44"</code>
