    Description

      We use MariaDB exclusively in Galera clusters. We do not enable MyISAM replication because it is not recommended.

      We wish there were a way to prevent users from creating MyISAM tables, since there is no way to raise a warning that such tables are not replicated.

      This is especially useful given that we've found a way for users to crash MariaDB if they have the ability to create/access MyISAM tables. This is the result of our investigation into CVE-2015-3210.

      This is evidently possible, since there is a community provided plugin. We do not plan to use this plugin, as it is not intended for MariaDB.

            D'oh! Thanks Elena. I never would have thought to search for "enforce storage engine."

            We'll be looking forward for the 10.1 series to go GA!

            It has already been implemented in MariaDB 10.1, see enforce_storage_engine option.
