According to this article, there is a major security leak in all versions of MySQL... http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,4149,1306270,00.asp The article provides a link to a patch, but I find two things confusing... 1. All the patches on that page are ancient. Why wouldn't these patches have been incorporated into MySQL by now, or is the article incorrect. 2. I can't tell which of the patches I need to fix MySQL running on Windows 2000 under IIS. Can someone more knowledgeable than I shed some light on these? Thanks!
