Description Lubomir Kundrak 2007-05-29 11:46:58 EDT

Description of problem:

Contrary to what the documentation says, ALTER privilege on the old table
and CREATE and INSERT privileges on the new table are sufficient for the
user to be able to rename a table.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

MySQL before 4.1.23, 5.0.x before 5.0.42, and 5.1.x before 5.1.18.
