Problem: calling non-constant argument's val_xxx() methods
in the ::fix_length_and_dec() is inadmissible.
Fix: call the method only for constant arguments.
RENAME TABLE against a table with DATA/INDEX DIRECTORY overwrites
the file to which the symlink points.
This is security issue, because it is possible to create a table with
some name in some non-system database and set DATA/INDEX DIRECTORY
to mysql system database. Renaming this table to one of mysql system
tables (e.g. user, host) would overwrite the system table.
Return an error when the file to which the symlink points exist.
Fulltext boolean mode phrase search may crash server on platforms
where size of pointer is not equal to size of unsigned integer
(in other words some 64-bit platforms).
The problem was integer overflow.
Affects 4.1 only.
Item_func_inet_ntoa and Item_func_conv inherit 'maybe_null' flag from an
argument, which is wrong.
Both can be NULL with notnull arguments, so that's fixed.
ucs2 doesn't provide required by fulltext ctype array. Crash
happens because fulltext attempts to use unitialized ctype
array.
Fixed by converting ucs2 fields to compatible utf8 analogue.
Buffer used when setting variables was not dimensioned to accomodate
trailing '\0'. An overflow by one character was therefore possible.
CS corrects limits to prevent such overflows.
myisam_sort_buffer_size.
An incorrect length of the sort buffer was used when calculating the
maximum number of keys. When myisam_sort_buffer_size is small enough,
this could result in the number of keys < number of
BUFFPEK structures which in turn led to use of uninitialized BUFFPEKs.
Fixed by correcting the buffer length calculation.
As the result of DOUBLE claculations can be bigger
than DBL_MAX constant we use in code, we shouldn't use this constatn
as a biggest possible value.
Particularly the rtree_pick_key function set 'min_area= DBL_MAX' relying
that any rtree_area_increase result will be less so we return valid
key. Though in rtree_area_increase function we calculate the area
of the rectangle, so the result can be 'inf' if the rectangle is
huge enough, which is bigger than DBL_MAX.
Code of the rtree_pick_key modified so we always return a valid key.
Bug#28878: InnoDB tables with UTF8 character set and indexes cause wrong result for DML
When making key reference buffers over CHAR fields whitespace (0x20) must be used to fill in the remaining space in the field's buffer. This is what Field_string::store() does. Fixed Field_string::get_key_image() to do the same.
The combination of --single-transaction and --master-data requires
START TRANSACTION WITH CONSISTENT SNAPSHOT which is available from
mysqld 4.1 on. When trying this against an older server, print
diagnostic, then, if --force is not given, abort.
No test-case given since it would require a mysqld < 4.1.
and for bug #31070: crash during conversion of charsets
Problem: passing a 0 byte length string to some my_mb_wc_XXX()
functions leads to server crash due to improper argument check.
Fix: properly check arguments passed to my_mb_wc_XXX() functions.
DELETE query against memory table with btree index may remove
not all matching rows. This happens only when DELETE uses
index read method to find matching rows. E.g. for queries
like DELETE FROM t1 WHERE a=1.
Fixed by reverting fix for BUG9719 and applying proper solution.
