If you get an error like @code{Error in accept:: Bad file descriptor} or

In MySQL 3.23.49 and MySQL 4.0.2 we added some new options to deal with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
possible security issues when it comes to @code{LOAD DATA LOCAL}.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are two possible problems with supporting this command:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
As the reading of the file is initiated from the server, one could
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
theoretically create a patched MySQL server that could read any file one
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the client machine, for which the current user have read privilege, when
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the client issues a query against the table.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In a web environment where the clients are connection from an web
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
server, a user could use @code{LOAD DATA LOCAL} to read any files for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
which the web server process have read access to (assuming a user could
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
run any command against the SQL server).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are two separte fixes for this:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If one doesn't configure with @code{--enable-local-infile} then
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
@code{LOAD DATA LOCAL} will be disabled by all clients, unless one
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
calls @code{mysql_options(... MYSQL_OPT_LOCAL_INFILE, 0)} in the client.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
@xref{mysql_options, , @code{mysql_options}}.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
One can enable this command in the @code{mysql} command line client by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
specify the option @code{--local-infile[=1]} and disable it with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
@code{--local-infile=0}.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default all MySQL clients and libraries are compiled with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
@code{--enable-local-infile}, to be compatible with MySQL 3.23.48 and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
before.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
One can disable all @code{LOAD DATA LOCAL} commands in the MySQL server
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
by starting @code{mysqld} with @code{--local-infile=0}.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In the case of that @code{LOAD DATA INFILE} is disabled in the server or
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the client, you will get the error message (1148):
