Exposures identifies the following problems:

CVE-2004-0381

The script mysqlbug in MySQL allows local users to overwrite
arbitrary files via a symlink attack.

CVE-2004-0388

The script mysqld_multi in MySQL allows local users to overwrite
arbitrary files via a symlink attack.

For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in
version 3.23.49-8.6.

For the unstable distribution (sid) these problems will be fixed in
version 4.0.18-6 of mysql-dfsg.");
