tag_insight = "MySQL is a multi-user, multi-threaded SQL database server. It consists of
  the MySQL server daemon (mysqld) and many client programs and libraries.

  It was found that the fix for the CVE-2009-4030 issue, a flaw in the way
  MySQL checked the paths used as arguments for the DATA DIRECTORY and INDEX
  DIRECTORY directives when the 'datadir' option was configured with a
  relative path, was incorrectly removed when the mysql packages in Red Hat
  Enterprise Linux 5 were updated to version 5.0.95 via RHSA-2012:0127. An
  authenticated attacker could use this flaw to bypass the restriction
  preventing the use of subdirectories of the MySQL data directory being used
  as DATA DIRECTORY and INDEX DIRECTORY paths. This update re-applies the fix
  for CVE-2009-4030. (CVE-2012-4452)

  Note: If the use of the DATA DIRECTORY and INDEX DIRECTORY directives were
  disabled as described in RHSA-2010:0109 (by adding 'symbolic-links=0' to
  the '[mysqld]' section of the 'my.cnf' configuration file), users were not
  vulnerable to this issue.

  This issue was discovered by Karel Volný of the Red Hat Quality Engineering
  team.

  This update also fixes the following bugs:

  * Prior to this update, the log file path in the logrotate script did not
  behave as expected. As a consequence, the logrotate function failed to
  rotate the '/var/log/mysqld.log' file. This update modifies the logrotate
  script to allow rotating the mysqld.log file. (BZ#647223)

  All MySQL users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
  contain backported patches to resolve these issues. After installing this
  update, the MySQL server daemon (mysqld) will be restarted automatically.";
