Description Vincent Danen 2010-05-13 20:01:56 UTC
The upcoming MySQL 5.1.47 [1] and 5.0.91 [2] releases indicate a fix for the following issue, which has been assigned CVE-2010-1850.  Currently the bug report [3] is not public.

The server was susceptible to a buffer-overflow attack due to a failure to perform bounds checking on the table name argument of a COM_FIELD_LIST command packet. By sending long data for the table name, a buffer is overflown, which could be exploited by an authenticated user to inject malicious code. (Bug#53237, CVE-2010-1850)

Without access to the upstream bug, it is difficult to determine if this would also affect older 4.x releases.
