INVOKER-security view access check wrong". When privilege checks were done for tables used from an INVOKER-security view which in its turn was used from a DEFINER-security view connection's active security context was incorrectly used instead of security context with privileges of the second view's creator. This meant that users which had enough rights to access the DEFINER-security view and as result were supposed to be able successfully access it were unable to do so in cases when they didn't have privileges on underlying tables of the INVOKER-security view. This problem was caused by the fact that for INVOKER-security views TABLE_LIST::security_ctx member for underlying tables were set to 0 even in cases when particular view was used from another DEFINER-security view. This meant that when checks of privileges on these underlying tables was done in setup_tables_and_check_access() active connection security context was used instead of context corresponding to the creator of caller view. This fix addresses the problem by ensuring that underlying tables of an INVOKER-security view inherit security context from the view and thus correct security context is used for privilege checks on underlying tables in cases when such view is used from another view with DEFINER-security.
This directory contains a test suite for the MySQL daemon. To run the currently existing test cases, simply execute ./mysql-test-run in this directory. It will fire up the newly built mysqld and test it. Note that you do not have to have to do "make install", and you could actually have a co-existing MySQL installation. The tests will not conflict with it. All tests must pass. If one or more of them fail on your system, please read the following manual section for instructions on how to report the problem: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysql-test-suite.html If you want to use an already running MySQL server for specific tests, use the --extern option to mysql-test-run. Please note that in this mode, the test suite expects you to provide the names of the tests to run. For example, here is the command to run the "alias" and "analyze" tests with an external server: mysql-test-run --extern alias analyze To match your setup, you might also need to provide --socket, --user, and other relevant options. With no test cases named on the command line, mysql-test-run falls back to the normal "non-extern" behavior. The reason for this is that some tests cannot run with an external server. You can create your own test cases. To create a test case, create a new file in the t subdirectory using a text editor. The file should have a .test extension. For example: xemacs t/test_case_name.test In the file, put a set of SQL statements that create some tables, load test data, and run some queries to manipulate it. We would appreciate it if you name your test tables t1, t2, t3 ... (to not conflict too much with existing tables). Your test should begin by dropping the tables you are going to create and end by dropping them again. This ensures that you can run the test over and over again. If you are using mysqltest commands (like result file names) in your test case, you should create the result file as follows: mysql-test-run --record test_case_name or mysqltest --record < t/test_case_name.test If you only have a simple test cases consisting of SQL statements and comments, you can create the test case in one of the following ways: mysql-test-run --record test_case_name mysql test < t/test_case_name.test > r/test_case_name.result mysqltest --record --record-file=r/test_case_name.result < t/test_case_name.test When this is done, take a look at r/test_case_name.result - If the result is incorrect, you have found a bug. In this case, you should edit the test result to the correct results so that we can verify that the bug is corrected in future releases. To submit your test case, put your .test file and .result file(s) into a tar.gz archive, add a README that explains the problem, ftp the archive to ftp://support.mysql.com/pub/mysql/secret/ and send a mail to bugs@lists.mysql.com
