Specifically, that’s a user with a blank (empty) host field. Created with a GRANT of the form:
GRANT ALL on *.database to 'username'@'' identified by 'password';
I’ve tried reading through the MySQL docs on GRANT, but to no avail.
Unless there’s a host named with the empty string on your network (i.e. the root of your DNS), that permission will never be matched.
