The check for empty password in the user account was checking the wrong field.
Fixed to check the proper password hash.
Test case added.
Fixed native_password and old_password plugins that suffered from the same
problems.
Unambuguated the auth_string ACL_USER member : previously it was used for
both password and the authentication string (depending on the plugin). Now
fixed to contain either the authentication string specified or empty string.
.-> USING PASSWORD: NO
The server was always setting the flag for using password to NO and
then relying on the server authentication plugin to update it if it uses
a password.
This creates compatibility problems with 5.1 when rejecting a
nonexistent user login.
Set the default for the password supplied flag for non-existing users
as the default plugin (native password authentication) would do it
for compatibility reasons.
Test case added.
federated.result updated with the correct error message.
Bug #11936829: DIFF. BETWEEN MYSQL.USER (AUTHENTICATION_STRING) IN
FRESH AND UPGRADED 5.5.11
There was no modification for pre 5.5.11 builds that had
authentication_string. Thus the column was not upgraded
by mysql_upgrade.
Fixed by adding an ALTER TABLE MODIFY to update an existing
column to the latest type version.
Test suite added.
configuration wizard to fail
Made the fields mysql.user.plugin and mysql.user.authentication_string
nullable to conform with some older clients doing inserts instead of
using the commands.
command line clients.
Command line tools like mysqladmin and mysqldump did not recognize
default-auth and plugin-dir options.
Support for these options was found missing in these command line
tools.
Fixed by adding support for the same.
Updated the server to treat a missing mysql.proxies_priv table
as empty.
Added some grants to make sure tables are correctly opened
when they must be opened.
Fixed a mysql_upgrade omission not adding rights to root to
execute GRANT PROXY on other users.
Removed a redundant CREATE TABLE from
mysql_system_tables_fix.sql since it's always executed after
mysql_system_tables.sql and the first file has CREATE TABLE
in it.
Added a test case for the above.
Fixed error handling code to close the cursor
1. Fixed the name of the table to proxies_priv
2. Fixed the column names to be of the form Capitalized_lowecarse instead of
Capitalized_Capitalized
3. Added Timestamp and Grantor columns
4. Added tests to plugin_auth to check the table structure
5. Updated the existing tests
Fixed incorrect handling of user credentials when authenticating
via proxy user. Now the server will use the proxies user's
access mask and host to update the security context runtime
structure when logging in.
Fixed a compilation warning with the embedded library.
Fixed a crash when doing a second GRANT PROXY on ''@'' due to
incomplete equality check logic.
