Most notably this version includes fixes for: http://secunia.com/advisories/21259/ http://secunia.com/advisories/21506/ http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2006-3469 * Packages changes: the script mysqldumpslow had been moved from the mysql4-client to the mysql4-server. * Changes since last packaged version (4.1.20) (see http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/news-4-1-21.html for more details): This is a bugfix release for the recent production release family. Functionality added or changed: - For spatial data types, the server formerly returned these as VARSTRING values with a binary collation. Now the server returns spatial values as BLOB values. (Bug#10166) - Added the --set-charset option to mysqlbinlog to allow the character set to be specified for processing binary log files. (Bug#18351) - For a table with an AUTO_INCREMENT column, SHOW CREATE TABLE now shows the next AUTO_INCREMENT value to be generated. (Bug#19025) - A warning now is issued if the client attempts to set the SQL_LOG_OFF variable without the SUPER privilege. (Bug#16180) - The mysqldumpslow script has been moved from client RPM packages to server RPM packages. This corrects a problem where mysqldumpslow could not be used with a client-only RPM install, because it depends on my_print_defaults which is in the server RPM. (Bug#20216) Bugs fixed: - Security fix: On Linux, and possibly other platforms using case-sensitive filesystems, it was possible for a user granted rights on a database to create or access a database whose name differed only from that of the first by the case of one or more letters. (Bug#17647) - Security fix: If a user has access to MyISAM table t, that user can create a MERGE table m that accesses t. However, if the user's privileges on t are subsequently revoked, the user can continue to access t by doing so through m. If this behavior is undesirable, you can start the server with the new --skip-merge option to disable the MERGE storage engine. (Bug#15195) - Security fix: Invalid arguments to DATE_FORMAT() caused a server crash. (CVE-2006-3469, Bug#20729) Thanks to Jean-David Maillefer for discovering and reporting this problem to the Debian project and to Christian Hammers from the Debian Team for notifying us of it. ...
