[debian-mysql] Bug#477072: mysql-server-5.0: Arbitrary data input plus GIS functions, causes mysql server crash

[tabris]

    This bug has been sitting around since July w/o a resolution.

    I tracked it down to a difference between i386 builds and AMD64. The
crash only occurs on AMD64. I think this is an important bug to be fixed
as it results in a minor reproducible DoS/data-loss (of temporary tables
and heap tables).

    At this point I am unclear on what to do about it, especially as I
contacted the maintainer directly 3 weeks ago and still have yet to
receive a response.
