**Mysql**

If you find that mysql is running as root you can eutiher try 

```
select sys_exec('whoami');
select sys_eval('whoami');
```

If neither of those won't workyou can use a User Defined Function. UDP. This has worked for me:

Putting . in the path
If you put a dot in your path you won't have to write `./binary` to be able to execute it. You will be able to execute any script or binary that is in the current directory.
