https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16551 is a good tutorial on how to test this. CC:

wilcal.int MGA5-32 on Acer D620 Xfce No installatioon issues Did some tests as per Comment 1: With phpmyadmin, created a table and filled in some values Got into mediawiki and set a new one up. Note for later readers, phphmyadmin and mediawiki are not part of the install, you need to install the packages separately. CC:

herman.viaene Testing M5-64 real hardware MariaDB updated to: lib64mariadb18-10.0.28-1.mga5 lib64mariadb-devel-10.0.28-1.mga5 lib64mariadb-embedded18-10.0.28-1.mga5 mariadb-10.0.28-1.mga5 mariadb-client-10.0.28-1.mga5 mariadb-common-10.0.28-1.mga5 mariadb-common-core-10.0.28-1.mga5 mariadb-core-10.0.28-1.mga5 mariadb-extra-10.0.28-1.mga5 mariadb-feedback-10.0.28-1.mga5 (In reply to William Kenney from comment #1) > https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16551 > is a good tutorial on how to test this. As far as I could see, this boiled down to: play with MediaWiki and PHPmyadmin. One could equally use Drupal, Moodle, Wordpress if those are installed to use MariaDB; or any more obscure application like Cacti, Bacula. Certainly PHPmyadmin is the most ubiquitous. I played with Cacti, which I cannot make show what I want, but its (mis)behaviour was consistent before & after the MariaDB update. Added & deleted graphs, changed display timespan. Played more with PHPmysql: created a table with columns, put data into them, altered the column names, deleted one. Looked at other real DBs. Things happened as expected. OK, but am witholding validation until an Advisory is available (to avoid this from then being UNvalidated & moved back out of the 'validated' list, awaiting advisory). CC:

lewyssmith Am validating this to get it off the main list of updates to test. Sysadmins please be patient until the Advisory is available; this is (or was) quite normal.

validated_update Advisory: ======================== Updated mariadb packages fix security vulnerabilities: A race condition was found in the way MariaDB performed MyISAM engine table repair. A database user with shell access to the server running mysqld could use this flaw to change permissions of arbitrary files writable by the mysql system user (CVE-2016-6663). This update fixes several vulnerabilities in the MariaDB database server. Information about these flaws can be found on the Oracle Critical Patch Update Advisory page, listed in the References section (CVE-2016-3492, CVE-2016-5584, CVE-2016-5616, CVE-2016-5624, CVE-2016-5626, CVE-2016-5629, CVE-2016-7440, CVE-2016-8283).
