Hi!

I ported the two patches to 4.0.24:

 http://patches.ubuntu.com/patches/mysql-dfsg.CAN-2004-0627_0628.diff

they look straightforward; however, the exploit on

  
http://downloads.securityfocus.com/vulnerabilities/exploits/mysql-auth-bypass.pl

still claims that access is granted. It also claims that with mysql
4.1.12-1 (which has the patch already applied upstream), so I begin to
wonder whether it is actually the exploit that is broken, not the
patch.

Christian, can upstream shed some light on this?

Thanks in advance and have a nice day!

Martin
