Bug #20802751 - SEGMENTATION FAILURE WHEN RUNNING
MYSQLADMIN -U ROOT -P DESCRIPTION =========== Crash occurs when no command is given while executing mysqladmin utility. ANALYSIS ======== In mask_password() the final write to array 'temp_argv' is done without checking if corresponding index 'argc' is valid (non-negative) or not. In case its negative (would happen when this function is called with 'argc'=0), it may cause a SEGFAULT. Logically in such a case, mask_password() should not have been called as it would do no valid thing. FIX === mask_password() is now called after checking 'argc'. This function is now called only when 'argc' is positive otherwise the process terminates
