USN-32-1 fixed a database privilege escalation vulnerability; original advisory text :
‘If a user was granted privileges to a database with a name containing an underscore (’_‘), the user also gained the ability to grant privileges to other databases with similar names. (CAN-2004-0957)’
Recently a corner case was discovered where this vulnerability can still be exploited, so another update is necessary.
Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Ubuntu security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.
