    Default Security Alert!

    Howcome everyone can see everyones databases when they load phpMyAdmin from their control panel?

    Something is not right, the permissions are screwed up with the MySQL 4.x upgrade!!

    Well where is Cpanel located? I though they were in the USA and if im correct they are only 3hrs ahead of me and i am in California, which would make it 3:30am in the morning there. Howcome the forum says 10:30am GMT? It cant be 10:30am in the morning where they are. They are locate in the USA!, so a TT will not help us right now if my calculations on their time zone is correct.

    Thats a thought but i dont know this is really problematic. I dont want my users seeing all our other users db's. What version would you downgrade to? R? Probably you could try the R release if you wanted to but would this be wise? I cant answer this question all i can say this is a pittyful mistake.

    And the worst part of the whole thing is that somebody could select your db then select DROP!

    Terrible!

    I doubt that will work.

    It doesn't matter which cpanel version you are running, since mysql upgraded because of /scripts/upcp.

    I think the only thing you can do is delete mysql 4 (rpm -e )
    and install mysql 3 again.
    But since I've never done this I can't tell you how to do this exactly.

    What I will do is just wait until it is fixed.

    yup, but in the time it takes to fix, is it not possible that a user could delete others databases?

    I said they were 3hrs ahead of me, which makes it enough time for anyone to delete anything. We dont all live in the same time zone!

    Well it says its 11:25am GMT so if that is true then this problem should be fixed but i doubt that is the case at all. Its 3:32am here so it would be 6:32am there and they are busy taking showers and powering their puffs and drinking coffee and having cigarettes. And being Sunday are they even working? I doubt they are unless but some miracle someone decides to read a TT. So dont expect fixes for quite a few more hours, if at all, because i think it wont be at least 2 or more hours before they even get any TT's and thats if they decided to read the important ones first!
