What's new in MySQL 5.5.10
Bugs fixed in MySQL 5.5.10
Functionality added or changed:
- Functionality added or changed:
MySQL distributions now include auth_socket, a server-side authentication plugin that authenticates clients that connect from the local host through the Unix socket file. The plugin uses the SO_PEERCRED socket option to obtain information about the user running the client program (and thus can be built only on systems that support this option. For a connection to succeed, the plugin requires a match between the login name of the connecting client user and the MySQL user name presented by the client program. For more information, see Section 5.5.6.1.4, "The Socket Peer-Credential Authentication Plugin". (Bug #59017, Bug #11765993)
