Comment 7 Huzaifa S. Sidhpurwala 2014-11-05 03:24:58 EST
The following issue has been fixed in MySQL:

"Vulnerability in the MySQL Server component of Oracle MySQL (subcomponent: SERVER:MyISAM). Supported versions that are affected are 5.5.38 and earlier and 5.6.19 and earlier. Difficult to exploit vulnerability requiring logon to Operating System plus additional login/authentication to component or subcomponent. Successful attack of this vulnerability can escalate attacker privileges resulting in unauthorized takeover of MySQL Server possibly including arbitrary code execution within the MySQL Server."
