Description:
When a user dumps a database containing a routine created by a different user, mysqldump crashes.

Let's assume two users, with the same privileges on a database.
For example, user1 creates a procedure

CREATE PROCEDURE p1() SELECT 'HELLO';

Then, user2 dumps the database

$ mysqldump -u user2 --routines db_name
Segmentation Fault

This bug may be related to Bug#26817.

# mysqldump crashes when dumping routines

# Embedded server doesn't support external clients
--source include/not_embedded.inc

--disable_warnings
drop schema if exists my_dump_test;
--enable_warnings

--echo # creating a test database
create schema my_dump_test;

--echo # creating two users with the same privileges
grant all privileges on my_dump_test.*  to user1 ;
grant all privileges on my_dump_test.*  to user2 ;

--echo # user1 creates a routine
connect (user1,127.0.0.1,user1,,my_dump_test,$MASTER_MYPORT,$MASTER_MYSOCK);
connection user1;

create procedure my_dump_test.p1() select 'hello';

--echo # user2 dumps the routine
--exec $MYSQL_DUMP  --user=user2 --password=  -h 127.0.0.1 -P $MASTER_MYPORT --routines my_dump_test | grep p1

--echo # cleaning up
connection default;
drop user user1;
drop user user2;
drop schema my_dump_test;

  Bug#27293: mysqldump crashes when dumping procedure defined by different user
  
  mysqldump didn't properly handle getting no data on
  SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE.  If S/C/P fails (due to dumping
  user's insufficient privileges on mysql.proc, say),
  mysqldump will print a comment to that effect to the
  output and return an error-code.  If the -f (force) option
  is used, the dump will continue, otherwise, it will abort
  right there and then.
  
  Also fixes Bug#22761, "mysqldump reports no errors when using
  --routines without mysql.proc privileges"

Noted in 5.0.42, 5.1.18 changelogs.

mysqldump crashed if it got no data from SHOW CREATE PROCEDURE (for
example, when trying to dump a routine defined by a different user
and for which the current user had no privileges). Now it prints a
comment to indicate the problem. It also returns an error, or
continues if the --force option is given.
