Should already have it!
When Wheezy went LTS (long term support), the LTS team took over the wheezy-security repo. I just had a quick look and from what I can see they have backported MySQL 5.5.52 into Wheezy to resolve the serious security bugs. FWIW normally, just a patch is backported and applied to the older version, but the LTS team don't have the same resources that the stable security team have so they must have decided a backported patch was too much work this time around.
You can check the version you have installed with the following:
It should show the version installed as "5.5.52-0+deb7u1".Add new comment
