Dear all,several days ago, someone hacked my test box using the latest FreeBSD. He explained that he rooted my box because he knows my root mysql password. Is it possible to hack system via MySQL ? or he just tricked me and try hide his way ? I am using MySQL 4.0.18 for FreeBSD.
My details system: OS: FreeBSD 5.1 MySQL version: 4.0.18 Port : 3306I opened port 3306 from Internet, so people can use this if they have access/username to MySQL.
Thank you. -- --- Kalpin Erlangga Silaen mailto: kalpin () solonet co id URL: http://www.warningnews.com YM: kalpinus MSN: kalpinus IRC: mesra.dal.net nick Kalpin
