An authenticated user could use a crafted CONTAINS statement to cause a denial of service. It was discovered that under certain conditions MySQL could be made to overwrite system table information. An authenticated user could use a crafted RENAME statement to escalate privileges. Philip Stoev discovered that the the federated engine of MySQL did not properly handle responses with a small number of columns.

Mandriva Linux Security Advisory - A vulnerability in MySQL prior to 5.0.45 did not require privileges such as SELECT for the source table in a CREATE TABLE LIKE statement, allowing remote authenticated users to obtain sensitive information such as the table structure. A vulnerability in the InnoDB engine in MySQL allowed remote authenticated users to cause a denial of service (database crash) via certain CONTAINS operations on an indexed column, which triggered an assertion error. Using RENAME TABLE against a table with explicit DATA DIRECTORY and INDEX DIRECTORY options could be used to overwrite system table information by replacing the file to which a symlink pointed to.
