make sure you change your mysql root passwords!
you do not want to end up like these idiots

Code:

[16:15] <[00|FRA|XP|SP1]-0480> Cracked MYSQL - IP: [196.206.15.57]->[adsl196-57-15-206-196.adsl196-1.iam.net.ma] [USER]: root [PASS]: <null>
[16:22] <[00|FRA|XP|SP1]-0480> Cracked MYSQL - IP: [196.206.20.237]->[adsl196-237-20-206-196.adsl196-1.iam.net.ma] [USER]: root [PASS]: <null>
[16:26] <[00|ESP|2K|SP4]-0151> Cracked MYSQL - IP: [192.168.1.8]->[NO_HOST] [USER]: root [PASS]: <null>

make sure it is not obvious either because i have rooted over 200 linux servers by scanning insecure mysql boxes

just make your root password hard to guess

Security is the first priority of our servers and strong database passwords are essential.
