Make DISKS plugin check some privilege to access information_schema.DISKS table

    XMLWordPrintable

    Details

      Description

      The documentation for the information_schema.DISKS table says the following:

      This plugin does not check user privileges. When it is enabled, any user can query the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.DISKS table and see all the information it provides.

      https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/information-schema-disks-table/

      It seems like this table should be protected by some privilege. Maybe FILE and/or SUPER privileges would be appropriate?
