For completeness below is the original advisory text :

  A stack-based buffer overflow in the init_syms function of MySQL, a
  popular database, has been discovered that allows remote
  authenticated users who can create user-defined functions to execute
  arbitrary code via a long function_name field. The ability to create
  user-defined functions is not typically granted to untrusted users.

The following vulnerability matrix explains which version of MySQL in
which distribution has this problem fixed :
