Hello,
imagine the following setup:
- a mysql-server - a client on a different host
Privileges on the mysql-server are setup in a manner, that users can connect from every host, but not from localhost (and they don't even have access to localhost). root on the other hand is allowed to connect from localhost only, but without giving him a password. Is this a security problem? Is there any way to trick the mysql-server, so that a remote-client can claim to be a localhost-client and thus can connect as mysql-user root?
Regards Marten
