What database privileges to grant to the user? [closed]

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15518623

Question

I am making a network based Android application. I have created a server on my web hosting. I have used PHP and MySQL to handle database operations, now I want to assign a user to this database and grant him/her privileges so as to manipulate data.

However I am not sure which privileges I should grant to the user and which not, I have attached a screen shot to the page asking me to grant privileges, I want to know what will be secure and what can cause me potential harm.

Solution

You only need CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) privileges.

So DELETE, INSERT, UPDATE, SELECT and EXECUTE(if you have some stored procedures to call) should suffice!
