when X.509 subject was required for a connect, we tested whether it was the right
one, but did not refuse the connexion if not. fixed.
(corrected CS now --replace_results socket-path)
The fix is: if user has privileges to view fields and user has any
(insert,select,delete,update) privileges on underlying view
then 'show fields' and select from I_S.COLUMNS table are sucsessful.
sp_grant_privileges(), the function that GRANTs EXECUTE + ALTER privs on a SP,
did so creating a user-entry with not password; mysql_routine_grant() would then
write that "change" to the user-table.
When reading a view definition from a .frm file it was
throwing a SQL error if the DEFINER user is not defined.
Changed it to a warning to match the (documented) case
when a view with undefined DEFINER user is created.
The check for view security was lacking several points :
1. Check with the right set of permissions : for each table ref that
participates in a view there were the right credentials to use in it's
security_ctx member, but these weren't used for checking the credentials.
This makes hard enforcing the SQL SECURITY DEFINER|INVOKER property
consistently.
2. Because of the above the security checking for views was just ruled out
in explicit ways in several places.
3. The security was checked only for the columns of the tables that are
brought into the query from a view. So if there is no column reference
outside of the view definition it was not detecting the lack of access to
the tables in the view in SQL SECURITY INVOKER mode.
The fix below tries to fix the above 3 points.
- In function 'handle_grant_struct' when searching the memory structures for an
entry to modify, convert all entries here host.hostname is NULL to "" and compare that
with the host passed in argument "user_from".
- A user created with hostname "" is stored in "mysql.user" table as host="" but when loaded into
memory it'll be stored as host.hostname NULL. Specifiying "" as hostname means
that "any host" can connect. Thus is's correct to turn on allow_all_hosts
when such a user is found.
- Review and fix other places where host.hostname may be NULL.

Concurrent read and update of privilege structures (like simultaneous
run of SHOW GRANTS and ADD USER) could result in server crash.
Ensure that proper locking of ACL structures is done.
No test case is provided because this bug can't be reproduced
deterministically.
Problem:
if a user was granted privileges on database "d1",
it also was able to act on "D1" (i.e. in upper case),
even on Unix with case sensitive file system.
Fix:
Initialize grant hash to use binary comparison
if lower_case_file_system is not set (on most unixes),
and case insensitive comparison otherwise (Windows, MacOSX).

Crash happened when one selected data from one of INFORMATION_SCHEMA
tables and in order to build its contents server had to open view which
used stored function and table or view on which one had not global or
database-level privileges (e.g. had only table-level or had no
privileges at all).
The crash was caused by usage of check_grant() function, which assumes
that either number of tables to be inspected by it is limited explicitly
or table list used and thd->lex->query_tables_own_last value correspond
to each other (the latter should be either 0 or point to next_global
member of one of elements of this table list), in conditions when
above assumptions were not true. This fix just explicitly limits
number of tables to be inspected. Other negative effects which are
caused by the fact that thd->lex->query_tables_own_last might not
be set properly during processing of I_S tables are less disastrous
and will be reported and fixed separetely.
There are two main idea of this fix:
- introduce a common function for server and client to split user value
(<user name>@<host name>) into user name and host name parts;
- dump DEFINER clause in correct format in mysqldump.
- Fixed tests
- Optimized new code
- Fixed some unlikely core dumps
- Better bug fixes for:
- #14397 - OPTIMIZE TABLE with an open HANDLER causes a crash
- #14850 (ERROR 1062 when a quering a view using a Group By on a column that can be null
when high concurrency": remove HASH::current_record and make it
an external search parameter, so that it can not be the cause of a
race condition under high concurrent load.
The bug was in a race condition in table_hash_search,
when column_priv_hash.current_record was overwritten simultaneously
by multiple threads, causing the search for a suitable grant record
to fail.
No test case as the bug is repeatable only under concurrent load.
