Dustin Henry Offutt proposed the following answer:
Hello Leif,

The CVE-2012-2122 vulnerability does not apply to the IUS Community
MySQL 5.5.24 packages in that the vulnerability has been alleged to only
affect MySQL and MariaDB servers up to 5.1.61, 5.2.11, 5.3.5 and 5.5.22.

Regardless, the IUS Community MySQL 5.5.24 package exhaustively tested
for the authentication bypass vulnerability and the test was
unsuccessful in broaching authentication.

Bit of trivia, the IUS Community MySQL 5.5.25 package is presently
available in the IUS testing repository. One may install it by adding "
--enablerepo ius-testing" to the yum command.

Thank you, Dusty
