对于任何一种数据库来说,安全问题都是非常重要的。如果数据库出现安全漏洞,轻则数据被窃取,重则数据被破坏,这些后果对于一些重要的数据库都是非常严重的。下面来从操作系统和数据库两个层对MySQL的安全问题进行讨论。
操作系统相关的安全问题
常见的操作系统安全问题主要出现在MySQL的安装和启动过程中.
1.严格控制操作系统账号和权限
在数据库服务器上要严格控制操作系统的账号和权限,比如:
锁定mysql用户
其他任何用户都采取独立的账号登录,管理员通过mysql专有用户管理MySQL,或者通过root su到mysql用户下进行管理。
mysql用户目录下,除了数据文件目录,其他文件和目录属主都改为root
2.尽量避免以root权限运行MySQL
MySQL安装完毕后,一般会将数据目录属主设置为mysql用户,而将MySQL软件目录的属主设置为root,这样做的目的是当使用mysql启动数据库时,可以防止任何具有FILE权限的用户能够用root创建文件。而如果使用root用户启动数据库,则任何具有FILE权限的用户都可以读写root用户的文件,这样会给系统造成严重的安全隐患。
3.防止DNS欺骗
创建用户时,host可以指定域名或者IP地址。但是,如果指定域名,就可能带来如下安全隐患:
如果域名对应的IP地址被恶意修改,则数据库就会被恶意的IP地址进行访问,导致安全隐患。
数据库相关的安全问题
常见的数据库问题大多数是由于账号的管理不当造成的。应该加强对账号管理的安全意识。
1.删除匿名账号
在某些版本的中,安装完毕MySQL后,会自动安装一个空账号,此账号具有对test数据库的全部权限,普通用户只需要执行mysql命令即可登录MySQL数据库,这个时候默认使用了空用户,可以在test数据库里面做各种操作,比如可以创建一个大表,占用大量磁盘空间,这样给系统造成了安全隐患。
2.给root账号设置口令
MySQL安装完毕后,root默认口令为空,需要马上修改口令
以上是3种常见的密码使用方式。很显然,第1种最不安全,因为它将密码写成为明文;第2种比较安全,但是只能使用在交互的界面下;第3种比较方便,但是需要将配置文件设置严格的存取权限,而且任何只要可以登录操作系统的用户都可能自动登录,存在一定的安全隐患。
第3种方法通常使用不多,下面举一个例子
(1)
输入mysql无法登录。
[root@iZ28dr6w0qvZ ~]# mysql
ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
[root@iZ28dr6w0qvZ ~]# service mysqld restart

all privileges里面的权限,远远超过了我们一般应用所需要的权限。而且,有些权限如果误操作,将会产生非常严重的后果,比如drop_priv等。因此,用户权限的时候越具体,则对数据库越安全。
5.除root外,任何用户不应有mysql库user表的存取权限
由于MySQL中可以通过更改mysql数据库的user表进行权限的增加、删除、变更等操作,因此,除了root以外,任何用户都不应该拥有对user表的存取权限(SELECT、UPDATE、INSERT、DELETE等),造成系统的安全隐患。下例对普通用户cqh授予user表的存取权限,看看会对系统产生了怎么样的安全隐患。
(1)创建普通用户chenqionghe,拥有对mysql数据库中的user表的各种权限。
[root@iZ28dr6w0qvZ ~]# mysql -uroot -p

6.不要把FILE、PROCESS或SUPER权限授予管理员以外的账号
FILE权限主要以下作用:
将数据库的信息通过SELECT ...INTO OUTFILE...写到服务器上有写权限的目录下,作为文本格式存放。具有权限的目录也就是启动MySQL时的用户权限目录。
可以将有读权限的文本文件通过LOAD DATA INFILE...命令写入数据表,如果这些表中存放了很重要的信息,将对系统造成很大的安全隐患。
在例中详细描述了FILE权限可能造成的隐患。
(1)连接数据库并创建测试表t。
[root@iZ28dr6w0qvZ ~]# mysql -uroot -p

| mysql:x:501:501::/home/mysql:/sbin/nologin
这样,重要的用户信息/etc/passwd内容将被写入表t中,造成安全隐患。
PROCESS权限能被用来执行“show processlist”命令,查看当前所有用户执行的查询的明文文本,包括设定或改变密码的查询。在默认情况下,每个用户都可以执行“show processlist”命令,但是只能查询本用户的进程。因此,对PROCESS权限管理不当,有可能会使得普通用户能够看到管理员执行的命令。
下例中对普通用户赋予了PROCESS权限,来看看会造成什么安全隐患。
(1)将PROCESS权限授予给普通用户:

可以发现,cqh显示的进程中清楚地看到了root的修改密码操作,并看到了明文的密码,这将对系统造成严重的安全隐患。
SUPER权限能够执行kill命令,终止其他用户进程。下面例子中,普通用户拥有了SUPER权限后,便可以任意kill任何用户的进程。
(1)cqh登录后想kill掉root修改密码进程(进程号27)
mysql> show processlist;

7.LOAD DATA LOCAL带来的安全问题
LOAD DATA默认读的是服务器上的文件,但是加上LOCAL参数后,就可以将本地具有访问权限的文件加载到数据库中。这在在带来方便的同时,可带来了以下安全问题。
可以任意加载本地文件到数据库。
在Web环境中,客户从Web服务器连接,用户可以使用LOAD DATA LOCAL语句来读取Web服务器进程在读访问权限的任何文件(假定用户可以运行SQL服务器的任何命令)。在这种环境中,MySQL服务器的客户实际上的是Web服务器,而不是连接Web服务器的用户运行的程序。
解决的方法是,可以用--local-infile=0选项启动mysqld从服务器禁用所有LOAD DATA LOCAL命令。
对于mysql命令行客户端,可以通过指定--local-infile[=1]选项启用LOAD DATA LOCAL,或通过--local-infile=0选项禁用。类似地,对于mysqlimport,--local or -L选项启用本地文件装载。在任何情况下,成功进行本地装载需要服务器启用相关选项。
8.DROP TABLE命令并不收回以前的相关访问权限
DROP表的时候,其他用户对此表的权限并没有被收回,这样导致重新创建同名的表时,以前其他用户对此表的权限会自动自动赋予,进而产生权限外流。因此,在删除表时,要同时取消其他用户在此表上的相应权限。
下面的例子说明了不收回相关访问授权的隐患。
(1)用root创建用户cqh,授权test下所有表的select权限:
mysql> grant select on test.* to cqh@localhost;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> show grants for cqh@localhost;
+-----------------------------------------------+
| Grants for cqh@localhost |
+-----------------------------------------------+

9.使用SSL
SSL(Secure Socket Layer,安全套接字层)是一种安全传输的协议,最初Netscape公司所开发,用以保障在Internet上数据传输之安全,利用 数据加密(Encryption)技术,可确保数据在网络上传输过程中不会被截取及窃听。
SSL协议提供的服务主要有:
(1)认证用户和服务器,确保数据发送到正确的客户机和服务器;
(2)加密数据以防止数据中途被窃取;
(3)维护数据的完整性,确保数据在传输过程中不被改变。
在MySQL中,要想使用SSL进行安全传输,需要在命令行中或选项文件中设置“--ssl”选项。
对于服务器,“ssl”选项规定该服务器允许SSL连接。对于客户端端程序,它允许客户使用SSL连接。对于客户端程序,它允许客户端用SSL连接服务器。单单该选项不足以使用SSL连接。还必须指定--ssl-ca、--ssl-cert和--ssl-key选项。如果不想启用SSL,可以将选项指定为--skip-ssl或--ssl=0。
请注意,如果编译的服务器或客户端不支持SSL,则使用普通的示加密的连接。
确保使用SSL连接的安全方式是,使用含REQUIRE SSL子句的GRANT语句在服务器上创建一账户,然后使用该账户来连接服务器,服务器和客户端均应启用SSL支持。下面例子创建了一个含REQUIRE SSL子句的账号:
10.如果可能,给所有用户加上访问IP限制
对数据库来说,我们希望客户端过来的连接都是安全的,因此,就很有必要在创建用户的时候指定可以进行连接的服务器IP或者HOSTNAME,只有符合授权的IP或者HOSTNAME才可以进行数据库的访问。
11.REVOKE命令的漏洞
当用户多次赋予权限后,由于各种原因,需要将此用户的权限全部取消,此时,REVOKE命令可能并不会按照我们的意愿执行,来看看下面的例子。
(1)连续赋予用户两次权限,其中,第2次是对所有数据库的所有权限。
mysql> grant select,insert on test.* to cqh@localhost;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> grant all privileges on *.* to cqh@localhost;
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> show grants for cqh@localhost;
+-------------------------------------------------------+
| Grants for cqh@localhost |
+-------------------------------------------------------+
| GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'cqh'@'localhost' |
| GRANT SELECT, INSERT ON `test`.* TO 'cqh'@'localhost' |
