Ok according to the video: This vulnerability affects the yaSSL authentication portion (so SSL certificate based authentication of clients). This attack is "reliable", usually works on the first try, but if it fails it will DoS MySQL and MySQL will require a restart. So it sounds like this might actually be a yaSSL vulnerability and not specific to MySQL. CC'ing support () yassl com so they are aware of this potential issue. Please use CVE-2012-0882 for this issue. -- Kurt Seifried Red Hat Security Response Team (SRT)
