You don't I'm sure, I did emphasise the paranoid aspect

But it's not over TLS/SSL so basically sent in clear text over the net. I am a little paranoid about SQL logins over the net due to things I've encountered at work in the past... Mind you, see http://heartbleed.com/

I think it is fair to say that you should disable the port forwarding on your router after a session though unless you have a compelling reason not to (being lazy is by definition not compelling!)

Just restrict remote logins to IP specificly and you'll be fine.

Even with the MySQL hash exploit as long as you restrict via IP you will be fine.
