OK, I strongly suspect I've just done something stupid here, but I'm
having trouble figuring it out. I had a disk go bad on a MySQL server
this past weekend. I did a clean system install (FreeBSD 5.4) on a
new disk, installed the MySQL 3.23 port, and restored the mysql data
directory from backup. Everything is working fine...except now, every
user is able to get a list of every database on the system. They
can't actually use the databases, but I'd rather they couldn't get
the list, either.
Following some suggestions I found in the list archives, I did a SHOW
GRANTS and found the following (database names match usernames):
GRANT USAGE ON *.* TO 'username'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD 'blablabla'
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `username`.* TO 'username'@'%'
I suspect that the problem lies with every user having "USAGE'
privileges on every database (although entering "use otherusername;"
returns an error indicating the user has no permissions to read the
database). However, I can't seem to revoke this privileges. I can't
even find the privilege in any of the tables.
Can someone point my addled brain in the right direction here?
Thanks!
-Bill
