In a MySQL Trigger, how to get informations on the user sending the request?

3.4k views Asked by At

I'm on MySQL 5.5, with a trigger, and I want to check if the user can do its request. It's just an exemple, how can I do with a code like this?

-- Trigger DDL Statements
DELIMITER $$

USE `database`$$

CREATE TRIGGER TBI_TEST BEFORE INSERT
ON tb_test FOR EACH ROW
BEGIN
  DECLARE ER_BAD_USER CONDITION FOR SQLSTATE '45000';

  IF NEW.host != {{HOW TO KNOW THE HOST PART OF THE CURRENT USER?}} THEN
    SIGNAL ER_BAD_USER 
        SET MESSAGE_TEXT = 'forbidden', MYSQL_ERRNO = 401;
  END IF;
END$$

Ok, i've found the solution:

USER()

[EDIT]

Warning:

MySQL store user and host values in with UTF8-BIN collation, after lowering them and USER() return without lowering.

For example, USER() return [email protected] when MySQL have stored gqyy and mytinnyhost-pc.local

a problem described here (Bug #60166) arises when you use a SUBSTRING_INDEX() inside a LOWER() with the return of USER() stored in an user-defined variable

For example:

mysql> SET @user_at_host = '[email protected]';
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0,00 sec)

mysql> SELECT LOWER(SUBSTRING_INDEX(@user_at_host, '@', -1));
+------------------------------------------------+
| LOWER(SUBSTRING_INDEX(@user_at_host, '@', -1)) |
+------------------------------------------------+
| mytinyhost-pc. ocal                            |
+------------------------------------------------+
1 row in set (0,00 sec)
