CVE-2010-3833

Publication date 5 November 2010

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Medium

Why this priority?

MySQL 5.0 before 5.0.92, 5.1 before 5.1.51, and 5.5 before 5.5.6 does not properly propagate type errors, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (server crash) via crafted arguments to extreme-value functions such as (1) LEAST and (2) GREATEST, related to KILL_BAD_DATA and a “CREATE TABLE ... SELECT.”
