The COM_CHANGE_USER command in MySQL 3.x before 3.23.54, and 4.x before 4.0.6, allows remote attackers to gain privileges via a brute force attack using a one-character password, which causes MySQL to only compare the provided password against the first character of the real password.

CWE
Authentication Bypass by Primary Weakness
mitre_cwe·CVSS 6.4
CVE-2002-1374 [MEDIUM] CWE-305 Authentication Bypass by Primary Weakness
CWE-305: Authentication Bypass by Primary Weakness
The authentication algorithm is sound, but the implemented mechanism can be bypassed as the result of a separate weakness that is primary to the authentication error.
Modes of Introduction:
Phase: Implementation
Note: REALIZATION: This weakness is caused during implementation of an architectural security tactic.
Common Consequences:
Scope: Access Control. Impact: Bypass Protection Mechanism.
Observed Examples:
CVE-2002-1374: The provided password is only compared against the first character of the real password.
CVE-2000-0979: The password is not properly checked, which allows remote attackers to bypass access controls by sending a 1-byte password that matches the first character of the real password.
CVE-2001-0088: Chain: Forum softwa
CWE
Partial String Comparison
mitre_cwe·CVSS 7.5
[HIGH] CWE-187 Partial String Comparison
CWE-187: Partial String Comparison
The product performs a comparison that only examines a portion of a factor before determining whether there is a match, such as a substring, leading to resultant weaknesses.
For example, an attacker might succeed in authentication by providing a small password that matches the associated portion of the larger, correct password.
Modes of Introduction:
Phase: Implementation
Common Consequences:
Scope: Integrity, Access Control. Impact: Alter Execution Logic, Bypass Protection Mechanism.
Potential Mitigations:
[Testing] Thoroughly test the comparison scheme before deploying code into production. Perform positive testing as well as negative testing.
Examples:
This example defines a fixed username and password. The AuthenticateUser() function is intended
