FOR SELECT * FROM mysql.password_history ORDER BY USER,HOST,TS DESC
{
if (count >= ::password_history && (NOW() - ts) > ::password_reuse_time)
{
delete row;
continue;

◆ change_password()

bool change_password ( THD thd,
LEX_USER lex_user,
const char *  new_password,
const char *  current_password,

)

Change a password hash for a user.

Parameters
thdThread handle
lex_userLEX_USER
new_passwordNew password hash for host@user
current_passwordCurrent password for host@user
retain_current_passwordPreference to retain current password

Note : it will also reset the change_password flag. This is safe to do unconditionally since the simple userless form SET PASSWORD = 'text' will be the only allowed form when this flag is on. So we don't need to check user names here.

Returns
Error code
Return values
0ok
1ERROR; In this case the error is sent to the client.

Returns
operation result
Return values

bool  drop,
LEX_USER user_from,
LEX_USER user_to,

Update in grant structure if drop is false and user_to is not NULL. Search in grant structure if drop is false and user_to is NULL. Structures are enumerated as follows: 0 ACL_USER 1 ACL_DB 2 COLUMN_PRIVILIGES_HASH 3 PROC_PRIVILEGES_HASH 4 FUNC_PRIVILEGES_HASH 5 ACL_PROXY_USERS

◆ handle_password_history_table()

static bool handle_password_history_table ( THD thd,
Table_ref tables,
bool  drop,
LEX_USER user_from,
LEX_USER user_to,
bool *  row_existed 
)
static

Updates the password history table for cases of deleting or renaming users.

This function, unlike the other "update" functions does not handle the addition of new data. That's done by auth_verify_password_history(). The function only handles renames and deletes of user accounts. It does not go via the normal non-mysql.user handle_grant_data() route since there is a (partial) key on user/host and hence no need to do a full table scan.

Parameters
thdThe execution context
tablesThe list of opened ACL tables
dropTrue if it's a drop operation
user_fromThe user to rename from or the user to drop
user_toThe user to rename to or the user to add
[out]row_existedSet to true if row matching user_from existed
Return values
trueoperation failed
falsesuccess

◆ log_user()

◆ set_and_validate_user_attributes()

bool set_and_validate_user_attributes ( THD thd,

bool  is_privileged_user,
bool  is_role,
Table_ref history_table,
bool *  history_check_done,
const char *  cmd,
Userhostpassword_list generated_passwords,
I_multi_factor_auth **  i_mfa,
bool  if_not_exists 
)

This function does following:

  1. Convert plain text password to hash and update the same in user definition.
  2. Validate hash string if specified in user definition.
  3. Identify what all fields needs to be updated in mysql.user table based on user definition.

If the is_role flag is set, the password validation is not used.

The function perform some semantic parsing of the original statement by investigating the syntactic elements found in the LEX_USER object not-so-appropriately named Str.

The code fits the purpose as a helper function to mysql_create_user() but it is used from mysql_alter_user(), mysql_grant(), change_password() and mysql_routine_grant() with a slightly varying semantic meaning.

Parameters
thdThread context
Struser on which attributes has to be applied
what_to_setUser attributes
is_privileged_userWhether caller has CREATE_USER_ACL or UPDATE_ACL over mysql.*
is_roleCREATE ROLE was used to create the authid.

[out]history_check_doneSet to on if the history table is updated
cmdCommand information
[out]generated_passwordsA list of generated random passwords. Depends on LEX_USER.
