3. Description:

 

MySQL is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. It consists of

the MySQL server daemon, mysqld, and many client programs.

 

The following packages have been upgraded to a newer upstream version:

mysql55-mysql (5.5.52).

 

Security Fix(es):

 

* It was discovered that the MySQL logging functionality allowed writing to

MySQL configuration files. An administrative database user, or a database

user with FILE privileges, could possibly use this flaw to run arbitrary

commands with root privileges on the system running the database server.

(CVE-2016-6662)

 

* This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the MySQL database server.

Information about these flaws can be found on the Oracle Critical Patch

Update Advisory page, listed in the References section. (CVE-2016-3492,

CVE-2016-5612, CVE-2016-5616, CVE-2016-5617, CVE-2016-5624, CVE-2016-5626,

CVE-2016-5629, CVE-2016-8283)

 

4. Solution:

 

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes

described in this advisory, refer to:

 

https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258

 

After installing this update, the MySQL server daemon (mysqld) will be

restarted automatically.
