LIKE craashed with a pattern having letters in the range 128..255
(e.g. A WITH ACUTE or C WITH CARON) because of wrong cast from
signed char to unsigned int.
The fix is: if user has privileges to view fields and user has any
(insert,select,delete,update) privileges on underlying view
then 'show fields' and select from I_S.COLUMNS table are sucsessful.
when calculating GROUP_CONCAT all blob fields are transformed
to varchar when making the temp table.
However a varchar has at max 2 bytes for length.
This fix makes the conversion only for blobs whose max length
is below that limit.
Otherwise blob field is created by make_string_field() call.
a non-correlated single-row subquery over information schema.
The function get_all_tables filling all information schema
tables reset lex->sql_command to SQLCOM_SHOW_FIELDS. After
this the function could evaluate partial conditions related to
some columns. If these conditions contained a subquery over
information schema it led to a wrong evaluation and a wrong
result set.
This bug was already fixed in 5.1.
This patch follows the way how it was done in 5.1 where
the value of lex->sql_command is set to SQLCOM_SHOW_FIELDS
in get_all_tables only for the calls of the function
open_normal_and_derived_tables and is restored after these
calls.
- Add test case(execute perror)
- Check if strerror has returned NULL and set msg to "Unknown Error" in that case
- Thanks to Steven Xie for pointing out how to fix.
subqueries on information schema that use MIN/MAX aggregation.
Execution of some correlated subqueries may set the value
of null_row to 1 for tables used in the subquery.
If the the subquery is on information schema it causes
rejection of any row for the following executions of
the subquery in the case when an optimization filtering
by some condition is applied.
The fix restores the value of the null_row flag for
each execution of a subquery on information schema.
When a wildcard database name is given the mysqlshow, but that wildcard
matches one database *exactly* (it contains the wildcard character), we
list the contents of that database instead of just listing the database
name as matching the wildcard. Probably the most common instance of users
encountering this behavior would be with "mysqlshow information_schema".
The Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() function creates Field_datetime
object instead of Field_timestamp object for timestamp field thus always
changing data type is a tmp table is used.
The Field_blob object constructor which is used in the
Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() is always setting packlength field of
newly created blob to 4. This leads to changing fields data type for example
from the blob to the longblob if a temporary table is used.
The Item::make_string_field() function always converts Field_string objects
to Field_varstring objects. This leads to changing data type from the
char/binary to varchar/varbinary.
Added appropriate Field_timestamp object constructor for using in the
Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() function.
Added Field_blob object constructor which sets pack length according to
max_length argument.
The Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() function now creates
Field_timestamp object for a timestamp field.
The Item_type_holder::display_length() now returns correct NULL length NULL
length.
The Item::make_string_field() function now doesn't change Field_string to
Field_varstring in the case of Item_type_holder.
The Item::tmp_table_field_from_field_type() function now uses the Field_blob
constructor which sets packlength according to max_length.
This was only demonstrated by the use of PASSWORD(), it was not related to
that function at all. The calculation of the size of a field in the results
of a UNION did not take into account the possible growth of a string field
when being converted to the aggregated character set.
When making a place to store field values at the start of each group
the real item (not the reference) must be used when deciding which column
to copy.
