Bug#44658 Create procedure makes server crash when user does not have ALL privilege
MySQL crashes if a user without proper privileges attempts to create a procedure. The crash happens because more than one error state is pushed onto the Diagnostic area. In this particular case the user is denied to implicitly create a new user account with the implicitly granted privileges ALTER- and EXECUTE ROUTINE. The new account is needed if the original user account contained a host mask. A user account with a host mask is a distinct user account in this context. An alternative would be to first get the most permissive user account which include the current user connection and then assign privileges to that account. This behavior change is considered out of scope for this bug patch. The implicit assignment of privileges when a user creates a stored routine is a considered to be a feature for user convenience and as such it is not a critical operation. Any failure to complete this operation is thus considered non-fatal (an error becomes a warning). The patch back ports a stack implementation of the internal error handler interface. This enables the use of multiple error handlers so that it is possible to intercept and cancel errors thrown by lower layers. This is needed as a error handler already is used in the call stack emitting the errors which needs to be converted.
