Title:RHSA-2007:0875: mysql security update (Important)
Description:MySQL is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. MySQL is a client/server implementation consisting of a server daemon (mysqld) and many different client programs and libraries.

  • A flaw was discovered in MySQL's authentication protocol. It is possible for a remote unauthenticated attacker to send a specially crafted authentication request to the MySQL server causing it to crash. (CVE-2007-3780)

    All users of the MySQL server are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch which fixes this issue.
