Steve,

Can MITRE handle this one?

Thanks.

MySQL 5.1.51 corrects a few security flaws.  Could we get some CVEs
assigned?

http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/news-5-1-51.html

Security Fix: During evaluation of arguments to extreme-value
functions
(such as LEAST() and GREATEST()), type errors did not propagate
properly, causing the server to crash. (Bug#55826)


Security Fix: The server could crash after materializing a derived
table
that required a temporary table for grouping. (Bug#55568)


Security Fix: A user-variable assignment expression that is evaluated
in
a logical expression context can be precalculated in a temporary
table
for GROUP BY. However, when the expression value is used after
creation
of the temporary table, it was re-evaluated, not read from the table
and
a server crash resulted. (Bug#55564)


Security Fix: Pre-evaluation of LIKE predicates during view
preparation
could cause a server crash. (Bug#54568)


Security Fix: GROUP_CONCAT() and WITH ROLLUP together could cause a
server crash. (Bug#54476)


Security Fix: Queries could cause a server crash if the GREATEST() or
LEAST() function had a mixed list of numeric and LONGBLOB arguments,
and
the result of such a function was processed using an intermediate
temporary table. (Bug#54461)


Security Fix: Queries with nested joins could cause an infinite loop
in
the server when used from stored procedures and prepared statements.
(Bug#53544)


Thanks!
