CVE-2006-0903  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Oracle:5 mysql-server to version 0:5.0.45-7.el5 or higher.
This issue was patched in ELSA-2008-0364.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mysql-server package and not the mysql-server package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:5 relevant fixed versions and status.

MySQL 5.0.18 and earlier allows local users to bypass logging mechanisms via SQL queries that contain the NULL character, which are not properly handled by the mysql_real_query function. NOTE: this issue was originally reported for the mysql_query function, but the vendor states that since mysql_query expects a null character, this is not an issue for mysql_query.
