This is the 5.1 merge and extension of the fix.
The server was happily accepting paths in table name in all places a table
name is accepted (e.g. a SELECT). This allowed all users that have some
privilege over some database to read all tables in all databases in all
mysql server instances that the server file system has access to.
Fixed by :
1. making sure no path elements are allowed in quoted table name when
constructing the path (note that the path symbols are still valid in table names
when they're properly escaped by the server).
2. checking the #mysql50# prefixed names the same way they're checked for
path elements in mysql-5.0.
The server was not checking the supplied to COM_FIELD_LIST table name
for validity and compliance to acceptable table names standards.
Fixed by checking the table name for compliance similar to how it's
normally checked by the parser and returning an error message if
it's not compliant.
The server could be tricked to read packets indefinitely if it
received a packet larger than the maximum size of one packet.
This problem is aggravated by the fact that it can be triggered
before authentication.
The solution is to no skip big packets for non-authenticated
sessions. If a big packet is sent before a session is authen-
ticated, a error is returned and the connection is closed.
Problem: "COM_FIELD_LIST is an old command of the MySQL server, before there was real move to only
SQL. Seems that the data sent to COM_FIELD_LIST( mysql_list_fields() function) is not
checked for sanity. By sending long data for the table a buffer is overflown, which can
be used deliberately to include code that harms".
Fix: check incoming data length.
If the listed columns in the view definition of
the table used in a 'INSERT .. SELECT ..'
statement mismatched, a debug assertion would
trigger in the cache invalidation code
following the failing statement.
Although the find_field_in_view() function
correctly generated ER_BAD_FIELD_ERROR during
setup_fields(), the error failed to propagate
further than handle_select(). This patch fixes
the issue by adding a check for the return
value.

Notes
=====
This is a backport of BUG#23300 into 5.1 GA.
Original cset revid (in betony):

Description
===========
When using replication, the slave will not log any slow query
logs queries replicated from the master, even if the
option "--log-slow-slave-statements" is set and these take more
than "log_query_time" to execute.
In order to log slow queries in replicated thread one needs to
set the --log-slow-slave-statements, so that the SQL thread is
initialized with the correct switch. Although setting this flag
correctly configures the slave thread option to log slow queries,
there is an issue with the condition that is used to check
whether to log the slow query or not. When replaying binlog
events the statement contains the SET TIMESTAMP clause which will
force the slow logging condition check to fail. Consequently, the
slow query logging will not take place.
This patch addresses this issue by removing the second condition
from the log_slow_statements as it prevents slow queries to be
binlogged and seems to be deprecated.
In statement-based or mixed-mode replication, use DROP TEMPORARY TABLE
to drop multiple tables causes different errors on master and slave,
when one or more of these tables do not exist. Because when executed
on slave, it would automatically add IF EXISTS to the query to ignore
all ER_BAD_TABLE_ERROR errors.
To fix the problem, do not add IF EXISTS when executing DROP TEMPORARY
TABLE on the slave, and clear the ER_BAD_TABLE_ERROR error after
execution if the query does not expect any errors.
in multitable delete/subquery
SQL_BUFFER_RESULT should not have an effect on non-SELECT
statements according to our documentation.
Fixed by not passing it through to multi-table DELETE (similarly
to how it's done for multi-table UPDATE).
Rename method as to not hide a base.
Reorder attributes initialization.
Remove unused variable.
Rework code to silence a warning due to assignment used as truth value.
REORGANIZE PARTITION
There were several problems which lead to this this,
all related to bad error handling.
1) There was several bugs preventing the ddl-log to be used for
cleaning up created files on error.
2) The error handling after the copy partition rows did not close
and unlock the tables, resulting in deletion of partitions
which were in use, which lead InnoDB to put the partition to
drop in a background queue.
'CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ... SELECT' statement were causing 'CREATE
TEMPORARY TABLE ...' to be written to the binary log in row-based
mode (a.k.a. RBR), when there was a temporary table with the same name.
Because the 'CREATE TABLE ... SELECT' statement was executed as
'INSERT ... SELECT' into the temporary table. Since in RBR mode no
other statements related to temporary tables are written into binary log,
this sometimes broke replication.
This patch changes behavior of 'CREATE TABLE [IF NOT EXISTS] ... SELECT ...'.
it ignores existence of temporary table with the
same name as table being created and is interpreted
as attempt to create/insert into base table. This makes behavior of
'CREATE TABLE [IF NOT EXISTS] ... SELECT' consistent with
how ordinary 'CREATE TABLE' and 'CREATE TABLE ... LIKE' behave.
In certain rare cases when a process was interrupted
during a FLUSH PRIVILEGES operation the diagnostic
area would be set to an error state but the function
responsible for the operation would still signal
success. This would lead to a debug assertion error
later on when the server would attempt to reset the
DA before sending the error message.
This patch fixes the issue by assuring that
reload_acl_and_cache() always fails if an error
condition is raised.
The second issue was that a KILL could cause
a console error message which referred to a DA
state without first making sure that such a
state existed.
This patch fixes this issue in two different
palces by first checking DA state before
fetching the error message.
MySQL handles the join syntax "JOIN ... USING( field1,
... )" and natural joins by building the same parse tree as
a corresponding join with an "ON t1.field1 = t2.field1 ..."
expression would produce. This parse tree was not cleaned up
properly in the following scenario. If a thread tries to
lock some tables and finds that the tables were dropped and
re-created while waiting for the lock, it cleans up column
references in the statement by means a per-statement free
list. But if the statement was part of a stored procedure,
column references on the stored procedure's free list weren't
cleaned up and thus contained pointers to freed objects.
Fixed by adding a call to clean up the current prepared
statement's free list.
In statement-based or mixed-mode replication, use DROP TEMPORARY TABLE
to drop multiple tables causes different errors on master and slave,
when one or more of these tables do not exist. Because when executed
on slave, it would automatically add IF EXISTS to the query to ignore
all ER_BAD_TABLE_ERROR errors.
To fix the problem, do not add IF EXISTS when executing DROP TEMPORARY
TABLE on the slave, and clear the ER_BAD_TABLE_ERROR error after
execution if the query does not expect any errors.
The problem is a somewhat common misusage of the strmake function.
The strmake(dst, src, len) function writes at most /len/ bytes to
the string pointed to by src, not including the trailing null byte.
Hence, if /len/ is the exact length of the destination buffer, a
one byte buffer overflow can occur if the length of the source
string is equal to or greater than /len/.
CURRENT_USER() in GRANT ... TO CURRENT_USER() only gave us a definer,
not a full user (i.e., password-element was not initiliazed). Hence
dereferencing the password led to a crash.
Properly initializes definers now, just so there are no misunderstandings.
Also does some magic so IDENTIFIED BY ... works with CURRENT_USER().
XA START may cause assertion failure/server crash when it is called
after unilateral roll back issued by the Resource Manager (both
in regular transaction and after XA transaction).
The problem was that rm_error variable wasn't set/reset properly.
view that has Group By
When SELECT'ing from a view that mentions another,
materialized, view, access was being denied. The issue was
resolved by lifting a special case which avoided such access
checking in check_single_table_access. In the past, this was
necessary since if such a check were performed, the error
message would be downgraded to a warning in the case of SHOW
CREATE VIEW. The downgrading of errors was meant to handle
only that scenario, but could not distinguish the two as it
read only the error messages.
The special case was needed in the fix of bug no 36086.
Before that, views were confused with derived tables.
After bug no 35996 was fixed, the manipulation of errors
during SHOW CREATE VIEW execution is not dependent on the
actual error messages in the queue, it rather looks at the
actual cause of the error and takes appropriate
action. Hence the aforementioned special case is now
superfluous and the bug is fixed.
Implemented the server infrastructure for the fix:
1. Added a function LEX_STRING *thd_query_string(THD) to return
a LEX_STRING structure instead of char *.
This is the function that must be called in innodb instead of
thd_query()
2. Did some encapsulation in THD : aggregated thd_query and
thd_query_length into a LEX_STRING and made accessor and mutator
methods for easy code updating.
3. Updated the server code to use the new methods where applicable.
buffering is used
FORCE INDEX FOR ORDER BY now prevents the optimizer from
using join buffering. As a result the optimizer can use
indexed access on the first table and doesn't need to
sort the complete resultset at the end of the statement.
On Mac OS X or Windows, sending a SIGHUP to the server or a
asynchronous flush (triggered by flush_time), would cause the
server to crash.
The problem was that a hook used to detach client API handles
wasn't prepared to handle cases where the thread does not have
a associated session.
The solution is to verify whether the thread has a associated
session before trying to detach a handle.
with gcc 4.3.2
This patch fixes a number of GCC warnings about variables used
before initialized. A new macro UNINIT_VAR() is introduced for
use in the variable declaration, and LINT_INIT() usage will be
gradually deprecated. (A workaround is used for g++, pending a
patch for a g++ bug.)
GCC warnings for unused results (attribute warn_unused_result)
for a number of system calls (present at least in later
Ubuntus, where the usual void cast trick doesn't work) are
also fixed.
procedures causes crashes!
The problem of that bugreport was mostly fixed by the
patch for bug 38691.
However, attached test case focused on another crash or
valgrind warning problem: SHOW PROCESSLIST query accesses
freed memory of SP instruction that run in a parallel
connection.
Changes of thd->query/thd->query_length in dangerous
places have been guarded with the per-thread
LOCK_thd_data mutex (the THD::LOCK_delete mutex has been
renamed to THD::LOCK_thd_data).
mysqld
The problem was that enabling the event scheduler inside a init
file caused the server to crash upon start-up. The crash occurred
because the event scheduler wasn't being initialized before the
commands in the init-file are processed.
The solution is to initialize the event scheduler before the init
file is read. The patch also disables the event scheduler during
bootstrap and makes the bootstrap operation robust in the
presence of background threads.
without proper formatting
The problem is that a suitably crafted database identifier
supplied to COM_CREATE_DB or COM_DROP_DB can cause a SIGSEGV,
and thereby a denial of service. The database name is printed
to the log without using a format string, so potential
attackers can control the behavior of my_b_vprintf() by
supplying their own format string. A CREATE or DROP privilege
would be required.
This patch supplies a format string to the printing of the
database name. A test case is added to mysql_client_test.
queries if query was killed
Since we rely on thd->is_error() to decide whether we should
COMMIT or ROLLBACK after a query execution, check the query
'killed' state and throw an error before calling
ha_autocommit_or_rollback(), not after.
The patch was tested manually. For reliable results, the test
case would have to KILL QUERY while a DELETE/UPDATE query in
another thread is still running. I don't see a way to achieve
this kind of synchronization in our test suite (no debug_sync
in 5.1).
with gcc 4.3.2
Compiling MySQL with gcc 4.3.2 and later produces a number of
warnings, many of which are new with the recent compiler
versions.
This bug will be resolved in more than one patch to limit the
size of changesets. This is the second patch, fixing more
of the warnings.
