CVE-2010-1621

Publication date 14 May 2010

Last updated 24 July 2024

Ubuntu priority

Low

Why this priority?

The mysql_uninstall_plugin function in sql/sql_plugin.cc in MySQL 5.1 before 5.1.46 does not check privileges before uninstalling a plugin, which allows remote attackers to uninstall arbitrary plugins via the UNINSTALL PLUGIN command.
