Descriptions
MySQL before 5.0.67 allows local users to bypass certain privilege checks by calling CREATE TABLE on a MyISAM table with modified (1) DATA DIRECTORY or (2) INDEX DIRECTORY arguments that are originally associated with pathnames without symlinks, and that can point to tables created at a future time at which a pathname is modified to contain a symlink to a subdirectory of the MySQL home data directory. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-4097.
MySQL anterior a 5.0.67, permite a usuarios locales evitar determinadas comprobaciones de privilegios haciendo una llamada CREATE TABLE en una tabla MyISAM que modifica los argumentos (1) DATA DIRECTORY o (2) INDEX DIRECTORY que están asociados originalmente con los nombres de ruta (pathname) sin enlaces simbólicos, y que pueden apuntar a tablas creadas después de que un nombre de ruta sea modificado para tener un enlace simbólico a un subdirectorio del directorio de datos inicial de MySQL. NOTA: esta vulnerabilidad es debida a que no se solucionó completamente la vulnerabilidad CVE-2008-4097.
