+  <background>
+    <p>
+    MySQL is a popular multi-threaded, multi-user SQL server.
+    </p>

+  <description>
+    <p>
+    Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in MySQL:
+    </p>
+    <ul>
+    <li>Mattias Jonsson reported that a "RENAME TABLE" command against a
+    table with explicit "DATA DIRECTORY" and "INDEX DIRECTORY" options
+    would overwrite the file to which the symlink points
+    (CVE-2007-5969).</li>
+    <li>Martin Friebe discovered that MySQL does not
+    update the DEFINER value of a view when the view is altered
+    (CVE-2007-6303).</li>
+    <li>Philip Stoev discovered that the federated
+    engine expects the response of a remote MySQL server to contain a
+    minimum number of columns in query replies (CVE-2007-6304).</li>
+    </ul>
+  </description>
+  <impact type="normal">
+    <p>
+    An authenticated remote attacker could exploit the first vulnerability
+    to overwrite MySQL system tables and escalate privileges, or use the
+    second vulnerability to gain privileges via an "ALTER VIEW" statement.
+    Remote federated MySQL servers could cause a Denial of Service in the
+    local MySQL server by exploiting the third vulnerability.
+    </p>
+  </impact>
+  <workaround>
+    <p>
+    There is no known workaround at this time.
+    </p>
+  </workaround>
+  <resolution>
+    <p>
+    All MySQL users should upgrade to the latest version:
+    </p>
+    <code>
+    # emerge --sync
+    # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-db/mysql-5.0.54"</code>
+  </resolution>
