Description
MySQL 5.0.18 allows local users with access to a VIEW to obtain sensitive information via the "SELECT * FROM information_schema.views;" query, which returns the query that created the VIEW. NOTE: this issue has been disputed by third parties, saying that the availability of the schema is a normal and sometimes desired aspect of database access
