Description: sql_yacc.yy says: revoke_command: grant_privileges ON opt_table FROM user_list {} | ALL PRIVILEGES ',' GRANT FROM user_list { Lex->sql_command = SQLCOM_REVOKE_ALL; } ; That is not right. The name of the privilege is GRANT OPTION, not GRANT. For example, to grant this privilege, you can say this: GRANT GRANT OPTION on ... But not this: GRANT GRANT on ... And to revoke it, you can say this: REVOKE GRANT OPTION on ... But not this: REVOKE GRANT on ... (See also the definition of the grant_privilege rule.) How to repeat: See above. Suggested fix: Change to: revoke_command: grant_privileges ON opt_table FROM user_list {} | ALL PRIVILEGES ',' GRANT OPTION FROM user_list { Lex->sql_command = SQLCOM_REVOKE_ALL; } ;
