I'm new to this side of things, I'm a php developer mostly. I'm looking through a clients MySQL access logs, and I notice that every 2 minutes the following takes place:
Code:
635856 Connect root@my_server.com on mysql
635856 Query show tables
635856 Query SELECT * FROM user LIMIT 15
635856 Quit
My concern is that it is something malicious or that someone is trying to hack the database? But if they already had the root user... whey would they be querying the user table? Maybe it's a system routine? Anybody know?
root logging in ever 2 minutes to get users?
