Hi

The following CVE[0] has been issued against mysql-dfsg-5.0.

CVE-2007-6304:

The federated engine in MySQL 5.0.x before 5.0.52, 5.1.x before 5.1.23,
and 6.0.x before 6.0.4, when performing a certain SHOW TABLE STATUS
query, does not properly handle a response with a small number of
columns, which allows remote MySQL servers to cause a denial of service
(federated handler crash and daemon crash) via a response that lacks the
minimum required number of columns.

Prepared patch can be found here[1].

Cheers
Steffen
