The server could be tricked to read packets indefinitely if it
received a packet larger than the maximum size of one packet.
This problem is aggravated by the fact that it can be triggered
before authentication.

The solution is to no skip big packets for non-authenticated
sessions. If a big packet is sent before a session is authen-
ticated, a error is returned and the connection is closed.

include/mysql_com.h:
  Add skip flag. Only used in server builds.
sql/net_serv.cc:
  Control whether big packets can be skipped.

Problem: "COM_FIELD_LIST is an old command of the MySQL server, before there was real move to only
SQL. Seems that the data sent to COM_FIELD_LIST( mysql_list_fields() function) is not
checked for sanity. By sending long data for the table a buffer is overflown, which can
be used deliberately to include code that harms".

Fix: check incoming data length.


sql/sql_parse.cc:
  Fix for bug #53237: mysql_list_fields/COM_FIELD_LIST stack smashing
    - check incoming mysql_list_fields() table name arg length.

The problem was in an incorrect debug assertion. The expression
used in the failing assertion states that when finding
references matching ORDER BY expressions, there can be only one
reference to a single table. But that does not make any sense,
all test cases for this bug are valid examples with multiple
identical WHERE expressions referencing the same table which
are also present in the ORDER BY list.

Fixed by removing the failing assertion. We also have to take
care of the 'found' counter so that we count multiple
references only once. We rely on this fact later in
eq_ref_table().

mysql-test/r/join.result:
  Added a test case for bug #50335.
mysql-test/t/join.test:
  Added a test case for bug #50335.
sql/sql_select.cc:
  Removing the assertion in eq_ref_table() as it does not make
  any sense. We also have to take care of the 'found' counter so
  that we count multiple references only once. We rely on this
  fact later in eq_ref_table().

 function on windows
               
When making sure that the directory path ends up with a 
slash/backslash we need to check for the correct length of 
the buffer and trim at the appropriate location so we don't
write past the end of the buffer.

The crash is the result of an attempt made by JOIN::optimize to evaluate
the WHERE condition when no records have been actually read.
The fix is to remove erroneous 'outer_join' variable check.


mysql-test/r/join.result:
  test result
mysql-test/t/join.test:
  test case
sql/sql_select.cc:
  removed erroneous 'outer_join' variable check.

The crash happens because greedy_serach
can not determine best plan due to
wrong inner table dependences. These
dependences affects join table sorting
which performs before greedy_search starting.
In our case table which has real 'no dependences'
should be put on top of the list but it does not
happen as inner tables have no dependences as well.
The fix is to exclude RAND_TABLE_BIT mask from
condition which checks if table dependences
should be updated.


mysql-test/r/join.result:
  test result
mysql-test/t/join.test:
  test case
sql/sql_select.cc:
  RAND_TABLE_BIT mask should not be counted as it
  prevents update of inner table dependences.
  For example it might happen if RAND() function
  is used in JOIN ON clause.

BUG#51342 - more xid crashing

Restore autocommit variable by supplying explicit value.

mysql-test/r/xa.result:
  Restore autocommit variable by supplying explicit value.
mysql-test/t/xa.test:
  Restore autocommit variable by supplying explicit value.

SET autocommit=1 while XA transaction is active may
cause various side effects, including memory corruption
and server crash.

The problem is that SET autocommit=1 and further queries
attempt to commit local transaction, whereas XA transaction
is still active.

As local and XA transactions are mutually exclusive, this
patch forbids enabling autocommit mode while XA transaction
is active.

mysql-test/r/xa.result:
  A test case for BUG#51342.
mysql-test/t/xa.test:
  A test case for BUG#51342.
sql/set_var.cc:
  Forbid enabling autocommit mode while XA transaction is
  active.

Spatial indexes were not checking for out-of-record condition in
the handler next command when the previous command didn't found
rows.

Fixed by making the rtree index to check for end of rows condition
before re-using the key from the previous search.

Fixed another crash if the tree has changed since the last search.
Added a test case for the other error.

If an outer query is broken, a subquery might not even get set up.
EXPLAIN EXTENDED did not expect this and merrily tried to de-ref all
of the half-setup info.

We now catch this case and print as much as we have, as it doesn't cost us
anything (doesn't make regular execution slower).

backport from 5.1

mysql-test/r/explain.result:
  Show that EXPLAIN EXTENDED with subquery and illegal out query doesn't crash.
  Show also that SHOW WARNINGS will render an additional Note in the hope of
  being, well, helpful.
mysql-test/t/explain.test:
  If we have only half a query for EXPLAIN EXTENDED to print (i.e.,
  incomplete subquery info as outer query is illegal), we should
  provide the user with as much info as we easily can if they ask
  for it. What we should not do is crash when they come asking for
  help, that violates etiquette in some countries.
sql/item_subselect.cc:
  If the sub-query's actually set up, print it. Otherwise, elide.

      
Fixed crash caused by x64 int/long incompatibility introduced
in Bug #29125.


sql/item_timefunc.cc:
  Fixed crash caused by int/long incompatibility on x64 systems.
                  
  Changed two "uint" casts and a "long" declartion to "int" in order to
  ensure that the integer sign is preserved.
                  
  See Bug #48739 for details.

When EXPLAIN EXTENDED tries to print column names, it checks whether the
referenced table is CONST (in which case, the column's value rather than
its name will be printed). If no proper table is reference (i.e. because
a derived table was used that has since gone out of scope), this will fail
spectacularly.

This ports an equivalent of the fix for Bug 43354.

mysql-test/r/func_gconcat.result:
  Show that EXPLAIN EXTENDED on a GROUP_CONCAT() on a derived table
  no longer crashes the server.
mysql-test/t/func_gconcat.test:
  Show that EXPLAIN EXTENDED on a GROUP_CONCAT() on a derived table
  no longer crashes the server.
sql/item_sum.cc:
  Do not de-ref what cannot be, that is, temp-tables that have gone away.
  This is of questionable utility anyway, since our deref has the sole
  purpose of checking whether the table is const (in which case, we'll
  substitute the column with its value in EXPLAIN EXTENDED - that is all).
