AppSecInc Team SHATTER discovered a buffer overflow in the ‘CREATE FUNCTION’ statement. By specifying a specially crafted long function name, a local or remote attacker with function creation privileges could crash the server or execute arbitrary code with server privileges.
However, the right to create function is usually not granted to untrusted users.
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.
