Implement table-level TRIGGER privilege to control access to triggers.
Before this path global SUPER privilege was used for this purpose, that
was the big security problem.
In details, before this patch SUPER privilege was required:
- for the user at CREATE TRIGGER time to create a new trigger;
- for the user at DROP TRIGGER time to drop the existing trigger;
- for the definer at trigger activation time to execute the trigger (if the
definer loses SUPER privilege, all its triggers become unavailable);
This patch changes the behaviour in the following way:
- TRIGGER privilege on the subject table for trigger is required:
- for the user at CREATE TRIGGER time to create a new trigger;
- for the user at DROP TRIGGER time to drop the existing trigger;
- for the definer at trigger activation time to execute the trigger
(if the definer loses TRIGGER privilege on the subject table, all its
triggers on this table become unavailable).
- SUPER privilege is still required:
- for the user at CREATE TRIGGER time to explicitly set the trigger
definer to the user other than CURRENT_USER().
When the server works with database of the previous version (w/o TRIGGER
privilege), or if the database is being upgraded from the previous versions,
TRIGGER privilege is granted to whose users, who have CREATE privilege.
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.
- Encoding itself, implemented as a charset
"filename". Originally planned to use '.'
as an escape character, but now changed to '@'
for two reasons: "ls" does not return
file names starting with '.' considering them
as a kind of hidden files; some platforms
do not allow several dots in a file name.
- replacing many calls of my_snprintf() and
strnxmov() to the new build_table_filename().
- Adding MY_APPEND_EXT mysys flag, to append
an extention rather that replace it.
- Replacing all numeric constants in fn_format
flag arguments to their mysys definitions, e.g.
MY_UNPACK_FILENAME,
- Predictability in several function/methods:
when a table name can appear with or withot .frm
extension. Some functions/methods were changed
so accept names strictly with .frm, other - strictly
without .frm extensions. Several DBUG_ASSERTs were
added to check whether an extension is passed.
Many files:
table name to file name encoding
mysql_priv.h:
Prototypes for new table name encoding tools.
ctype-utf8.c:
Implementing "filename" charset for
table name to file name encoding.
row0mysql.c:
Fixing table name prefix.
mf_format.c:
Adding MY_APPEND_EXT processing.
Many files:
Fixing tests.
my_sys.h:
Adding new flag to append rather than replace an extension.
m_ctype.h:
Adding "filename" charset definition.
- split into several files
- forbid parallel execution (before analyse is done how to make it possible)
because the same sp_head instance cannot be executed in parallel
- added GPL headers
- changed EVENT_ACL to be per DB variable
- fixed minor problems
Post-review fixes that simplify the way access rights
are checked during name resolution and factor out all
entry points to check access rights into one single
function.
The table opening process now works the following way:
- Create common TABLE_SHARE object
- Read the .frm file and unpack it into the TABLE_SHARE object
- Create a TABLE object based on the information in the TABLE_SHARE
object and open a handler to the table object
Other noteworthy changes:
- In TABLE_SHARE the most common strings are now LEX_STRING's
- Better error message when table is not found
- Variable table_cache is now renamed 'table_open_cache'
- New variable 'table_definition_cache' that is the number of table defintions that will be cached
- strxnmov() calls are now fixed to avoid overflows
- strxnmov() will now always add one end \0 to result
- engine objects are now created with a TABLE_SHARE object instead of a TABLE object.
- After creating a field object one must call field->init(table) before using it
- For a busy system this change will give you:
- Less memory usage for table object
- Faster opening of tables (if it's has been in use or is in table definition cache)
- Allow you to cache many table definitions objects
- Faster drop of table
Bad examples of usage of a string with its length fixed.
The incorrect length in the trigger file configuration descriptor
fixed (BUG#14090).
A hook for unknown keys added to the parser to support old .TRG files.
ps_6bdb (this one fails circa once over 4 runs). After the merge: the same PLUS mysql_client_test&sp (due to problem in fix of BUG#14845 which has also
been noticed in 5.0 too and Konstantin is looking at it) PLUS mysqlcheck (just consequence of mysql_client_test).
And a replication bugfix (thd->spcont must be taken into account when calling tables_ok(), as in 5.0,
and so some brackets were missing which changed one test).
Pekka will look at the NDB code where I just used "ul": ndb_charset test, and storage/ndb/src/kernel/vm/SimulatedBlock.cpp
and storage/ndb/src/kernel/blocks/dbtup/DbtupRoutines.cpp (SimulatedBlock.hpp automerged);
please also check storage/ndb/src/ndbapi/NdbRecAttr.cpp. Petr please check ha_tina.cc.
ps_grant.result:
Fixing result order.
grant.result:
Adding test case,
fixing result order.
grant.test:
Adding test case.
sql_acl.cc:
Fixed that my_charset_latin1 was incorrectly used instead of system_charset_info.
This problem was previously fixed by Ingo in 5.0.
This patch is basically a backport of the same changes into 4.1.
--with-embedded-privilege-control options". One more (hopefully last) build
failure which was introduced during work on WL#2787 "Add view definer/owner
to the view definition..."
