以下は、追加または変更された機能です。

* Important Change: Partitioning: Security Fix: It was
possible, by creating a partitioned table using the DATA
DIRECTORY and INDEX DIRECTORY options to gain privileges
on other tables having the same name as the partitioned
table. As a result of this fix, any table-level DATA
DIRECTORY or INDEX DIRECTORY options are now ignored for
partitioned tables.
(Bug#32091:http://bugs.mysql.com/32091,CVE-2007-5970
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-5970))
See alsoBug#29325:http://bugs.mysql.com/29325,
Bug#32111:http://bugs.mysql.com/32111
* Incompatible Change: In MySQL 5.1.6, when log tables were
implemented, the default log destination for the general
query and slow query log was TABLE. This default has been
changed to FILE, which is compatible with MySQL 5.0, but
incompatible with earlier releases of MySQL 5.1 from
5.1.6 to 5.1.20. If you are upgrading from MySQL 5.0 to
this release, no logging option changes should be
necessary. However, if you are upgrading from 5.1.6
through 5.1.20 to this release and were using TABLE
logging, use the --log-output=TABLE option explicitly to
preserve your server's table-logging behavior.
In MySQL 5.1.x, this bug was addressed twice because it
turned out that the default was set in two places, only
one of which was fixed the first time.
(Bug#29993:http://bugs.mysql.com/29993)
* Incompatible Change
The parser accepted statements that contained /* ... */
that were not properly closed with */, such as SELECT 1
/* + 2. Statements that contain unclosed /*-comments now
are rejected with a syntax error.
This fix has the potential to cause incompatibilities.
Because ofBug#26302:http://bugs.mysql.com/26302,which
caused the trailing */ to be truncated from comments in
views, stored routines, triggers, and events, it is
possible that objects of those types may have been stored
with definitions that now will be rejected as
syntactically invalid. Such objects should be dropped and
re-created so that their definitions do not contain
truncated comments.
(Bug#28779:http://bugs.mysql.com/28779)
* MySQL Cluster: The following improvements have been made
in the ndb_size.pl utility:
+ The script can now be used with multiple databases;
lists of databases and tables can also be excluded
from analysis.
+ Schema name information has been added to index
table calculations.
+ The database name is now an optional parameter, the
exclusion of which causes all databases to be
examined.
+ If selecting from INFORMATION_SCHEMA fails, the
script now attempts to fall back to SHOW TABLES.
+ A --real_table_name option has been added; this
designates a table to handle unique index size
calculations.
+ The report title has been amended to cover cases
where more than one database is being analyzed.
Support for a --socket option was also added.
For more information, see Section 15.9.15, "ndb_size.pl
--- NDBCluster Size Requirement Estimator."
(Bug#28683:http://bugs.mysql.com/28683,
Bug#28253:http://bugs.mysql.com/28253)
* MySQL Cluster: Mapping of NDB error codes to MySQL
storage engine error codes has been improved.
(Bug#28423:http://bugs.mysql.com/28423)
* MySQL Cluster: The output from the cluster management
client showing the progress of data node starts has been
improved. (Bug#23354:http://bugs.mysql.com/23354)
* Partitioning: Error messages for partitioning syntax
errors have been made more descriptive.
(Bug#29368:http://bugs.mysql.com/29368)
* Replication: Replication of the following now switches to
row-based logging in MIXED mode, and generates a warning
in STATEMENT mode:
+ USER()
+ CURRENT_USER()
+ CURRENT_USER
+ FOUND_ROWS()
+ ROW_COUNT()
See Section 5.2.4.3, "Mixed Binary Logging (MBL) Format,"
for more information.

Bug#28086:http://bugs.mysql.com/28086,
Bug#30244:http://bugs.mysql.com/30244)
* mysqltest now has a change_user command to change the
user for the current connection. (It invokes the
mysql_change_user() C API function.)
(Bug#31608:http://bugs.mysql.com/31608)
* mysql-test-run.pl now allows a suite name prefix to be
specified in command-line arguments that name test cases.
The test name syntax now is
[suite_name.]test_name[.suffix]. For example,
mysql-test-run.pl binlog.mytest runs the mytest.test test
in the binlog test suite.
(Bug#31400:http://bugs.mysql.com/31400)
* The --event-scheduler option without a value disabled the
event scheduler. Now it enables the event scheduler.
(Bug#31332:http://bugs.mysql.com/31332)
* mysqldump produces a -- Dump completed on DATE comment at
the end of the dump if --comments is given. The date
causes dump files for identical data take at different
times to appear to be different. The new options
--dump-date and --skip-dump-date control whether the date
is added to the comment. --skip-dump-date suppresses date
printing. The default is --dump-date (include the date in
the comment). (Bug#31077:http://bugs.mysql.com/31077)
* Server parser performance was improved for expression
parsing by lowering the number of state transitions and
reductions needed.
(Bug#30625:http://bugs.mysql.com/30625)
* Server parser performance was improved for identifier
lists, expression lists, and UDF expression lists.
(Bug#30333:http://bugs.mysql.com/30333)
* Server parser performance was improved for boolean
expressions. (Bug#30237:http://bugs.mysql.com/30237)
* The LAST_EXECUTED column of the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.EVENTS
table now indicates when the event started executing
rather than when it finished executing. As a result, the
ENDS column is never less than LAST_EXECUTED.
(Bug#29830:http://bugs.mysql.com/29830)
* The mysql_odbc_escape_string() C API function has been
removed. It has multi-byte character escaping issues,
doesn't honor the NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES SQL mode and is
not needed anymore by Connector/ODBC as of 3.51.17.
(Bug#29592:http://bugs.mysql.com/29592)
* If a MyISAM table is created with no DATA DIRECTORY
option, the .MYD file is created in the database
directory. By default, if MyISAM finds an existing .MYD
file in this case, it overwrites it. The same applies to
.MYI files for tables created with no INDEX DIRECTORY
option. To suppress this behavior, start the server with
the new --keep_files_on_create option, in which case
MyISAM will not overwrite existing files and returns an
error instead. (Bug#29325:http://bugs.mysql.com/29325)
* The default value of the connect_timeout system variable
was increased from 5 to 10 seconds. This might help in
cases where clients frequently encounter errors of the
form Lost connection to MySQL server at 'XXX', system
error: errno. (Bug#28359:http://bugs.mysql.com/28359)
* MySQL now can be compiled with gcc 4.2.x. There was a
problem involving a conflict with the min() and max()
macros in my_global.h.
(Bug#28184:http://bugs.mysql.com/28184)

Bugs fixed:
* Security Fix: Replication: It was possible for any
connected user to issue a BINLOG statement, which could
be used to escalate privileges.
Use of the BINLOG statement now requires the SUPER
privilege. (Bug#31611:http://bugs.mysql.com/31611,
CVE-2007-6313
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-6
313))
* Security Fix: Three vulnerabilities in yaSSL versions
1.7.5 and earlier were discovered that could lead to a
server crash or execution of unauthorized code. The
exploit requires a server with yaSSL enabled and TCP/IP
connections enabled, but does not require valid MySQL
account credentials. The exploit does not apply to
OpenSSL.
Note
The proof-of-concept exploit is freely available on the
Internet. Everyone with a vulnerable MySQL configuration
is advised to upgrade immediately.
(Bug#33814:http://bugs.mysql.com/33814,CVE-2008-0226
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-0226),
CVE-2008-0227
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-0227))
* Security Fix: Using RENAME TABLE against a table with
explicit DATA DIRECTORY and INDEX DIRECTORY options can
be used to overwrite system table information by
replacing the symbolic link points. the file to which the
symlink points.
MySQL will now return an error when the file to which the
symlink points already exists.
(Bug#32111:http://bugs.mysql.com/32111,CVE-2007-5969
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2007-5969))
* Security Fix: ALTER VIEW retained the original DEFINER
value, even when altered by another user, which could
allow that user to gain the access rights of the view.
Now ALTER VIEW is allowed only to the original definer or
users with the SUPER privilege.
(Bug#29908:http://bugs.mysql.com/29908)
* Security Fix: When using a FEDERATED table, the local
server could be forced to crash if the remote server
returned a result with fewer columns than expected.
(Bug#29801:http://bugs.mysql.com/29801)
* Security Enhancement: It was possible to force an error
message of excessive length which could lead to a buffer
overflow. This has been made no longer possible as a
security precaution.
(Bug#32707:http://bugs.mysql.com/32707)
* Important Change: Incompatible Change: A number of
problems existed in the implementation of MERGE tables
that could cause problems. The problems are summarized
below:
+Bug#26379:http://bugs.mysql.com/26379- Combination
of FLUSH TABLE and REPAIR TABLE corrupts a MERGE
table. This was caused in a number of situations:
1. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs
busy waiting while REPAIR TABLE or a similar
table administration task is ongoing on one or
more of its MyISAM tables.
2. A thread trying to lock a MERGE table performs
busy waiting until all threads that did REPAIR
TABLE or similar table administration tasks on
one or more of its MyISAM tables in LOCK TABLES
segments do UNLOCK TABLES. The difference
against problem #1 is that the busy waiting
takes place after the administration task. It
is terminated by UNLOCK TABLES only.
3. Two FLUSH TABLES within a LOCK TABLES segment
can invalidate the lock. This does not require
a MERGE table. The first FLUSH TABLES can be
replaced by any statement that requires other
threads to reopen the table. In 5.0 and 5.1 a
single FLUSH TABLES can provoke the problem.
+Bug#26867:http://bugs.mysql.com/26867-
Simultaneously executing LOCK TABLES and REPAIR
TABLE on a MERGE table would result in memory/cpu
hogging.
Trying DML on a MERGE table, which has a child
locked and repaired by another thread, made an
infinite loop in the server.
+Bug#26377:http://bugs.mysql.com/26377- Deadlock
with MERGE and FLUSH TABLE
Locking a MERGE table and its children in
parent-child order and flushing the child deadlocked
the server.
+Bug#25038:http://bugs.mysql.com/25038- Waiting
TRUNCATE
Truncating a MERGE child, while the MERGE table was
in use, let the truncate fail instead of waiting for
the table to become free.
+Bug#25700:http://bugs.mysql.com/25700- MERGE base
tables get corrupted by OPTIMIZE/ANALYZE/REPAIR
TABLE
Repairing a child of an open MERGE table corrupted
the child. It was necessary to FLUSH the child
first.
+Bug#30275:http://bugs.mysql.com/30275- MERGE
tables: FLUSH TABLES or UNLOCK TABLES causes server
to crash.
Flushing and optimizing locked MERGE children
crashed the server.
+Bug#19627:http://bugs.mysql.com/19627- temporary
merge table locking
Use of a temporary MERGE table with non-temporary
children could corrupt the children.
Temporary tables are never locked. Creation of
tables with non-temporary children of a temporary
MERGE table is now prohibited.
+Bug#27660:http://bugs.mysql.com/27660- Falcon:
MERGE table possible
It was possible to create a MERGE table with
non-MyISAM children.
+Bug#30273:http://bugs.mysql.com/30273- MERGE
tables: Can't lock file (errno: 155)
This was a Windows-only bug. Table administration
statements sometimes failed with "Can't lock file
(errno: 155)".
The fix introduces the following changes in behavior:
+ This patch changes the behavior of temporary MERGE
tables. Temporary MERGE must have temporary
children. The old behavior was wrong. A temporary
table is not locked. Hence even non-temporary
children were not locked. See
Bug#19627:http://bugs.mysql.com/19627.
+ You cannot change the union list of a non-temporary
MERGE table when LOCK TABLES is in effect. The
following does not work:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ...;
LOCK TABLES t1 WRITE, t2 WRITE, m1 WRITE;
ALTER TABLE m1 ... UNION=(t1,t2) ...;
However, you can do this with a temporary MERGE
table.
+ You cannot create a MERGE table with CREATE ...
SELECT, neither as a temporary MERGE table, nor as a
non-temporary MERGE table. For example:
CREATE TABLE m1 ... ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM ... SELECT ...;
gives error message: table is not BASE TABLE.

Bug#30491:http://bugs.mysql.com/30491)
* Incompatible Change: It is no longer possible to create
CSV tables with NULL columns. However, for backwards
compatibility, you can continue to use such tables that
were created in previous MySQL releases.
(Bug#32050:http://bugs.mysql.com/32050)
* Incompatible Change: Inserting a row with a NULL value
for a DATETIME column results in a CSV file that the
storage engine cannot read.
All CSV tables now need to be defined with each column
marked as NOT NULL. An error is raised if you try to
create a CSV table with columns that are not defined with
NOT NULL. (Bug#31473:http://bugs.mysql.com/31473,
Bug#32817:http://bugs.mysql.com/32817)
* Incompatible Change: SET PASSWORD statements now cause an
implicit commit, and thus are prohibited within stored
functions and triggers.
(Bug#30904:http://bugs.mysql.com/30904)
* Incompatible Change: The mysql_install_db script could
fail to locate some components (including resolveip)
during execution if the --basedir option was specified on
the command-line or within the my.cnf file. This was due
to a conflict when comparing the compiled-in values and
the supplied values.
The --source-install command-line option to the script
has been removed and replaced with the --srcdir option.
mysql_install_db now locates components either using the
compiled-in options, the --basedir option or --srcdir
option. (Bug#30759:http://bugs.mysql.com/30759)
* Incompatible Change: Within a stored routine, it is no
longer allowable to declare a cursor for a SHOW
statement. This happened to work in some instances, but
is no longer supported.
(Bug#29223:http://bugs.mysql.com/29223)
* Incompatible Change: GRANT and REVOKE statements now
cause an implicit commit, and thus are prohibited within
stored functions and triggers.
(Bug#21975:http://bugs.mysql.com/21975,
Bug#21422:http://bugs.mysql.com/21422,
Bug#17244:http://bugs.mysql.com/17244)
* Incompatible Change: It was possible for option files to
be read twice at program startup, if some of the standard
option file locations turned out to be the same
directory. Now duplicates are removed from the list of
files to be read.
Also, users could not override system-wide settings using
~/.my.cnf because SYSCONFDIR/my.cnf was read last. The
latter file now is read earlier so that ~/.my.cnf can
override system-wide settings.
(Bug#20748:http://bugs.mysql.com/20748)
* Important Change: MySQL Cluster: AUTO_INCREMENT columns
had the following problems when used in NDB tables:
+ The AUTO_INCREMENT counter was not updated correctly
when such a column was updated.
+ AUTO_INCREMENT values were not prefetched beyond
statement boundaries.
+ AUTO_INCREMENT values were not handled correctly
with INSERT IGNORE statements.
+ After being set, ndb_autoincrement_prefetch_sz
showed a value of 1, regardless of the value it had
actually been set to.
As part of this fix, the behavior of
ndb_autoincrement_prefetch_sz has changed. Setting this
to less than 32 no longer has any effect on prefetching
within statements (where IDs are now always obtained in
batches of 32 or more), but only between statements. The
default value for this variable has also changed, and is
now 1. (Bug#25176:http://bugs.mysql.com/25176,
Bug#31956:http://bugs.mysql.com/31956,
Bug#32055:http://bugs.mysql.com/32055)
* Partitioning: Important Note: An apostrophe or single
quote character (') used in the DATA DIRECTORY, INDEX
DIRECTORY, or COMMENT for a PARTITION clause caused the
server to crash. When used as part of a CREATE TABLE
statement, the crash was immediate. When used in an ALTER
TABLE statement, the crash did not occur until trying to
perform a SELECT or DML statement on the table. In either
case, the server could not be completely restarted until
the .FRM file corresponding to the newly created or
altered table was deleted.
Note
Upgrading to the current (or later) release solves this
problem only for tables that are newly created or
altered. Tables created or altered in previous versions
of the server to include ' characters in PARTITION
options must still be removed by deleting the
corresponding .FRM files and re-creating them afterwards.
(Bug#30695:http://bugs.mysql.com/30695)
* Important Note: The RENAME DATABASE statement was removed
and replaced with ALTER DATABASE db_name UPGRADE DATA
DIRECTORY NAME. The RENAME DATABASE statement was
intended for upgrading database directory names to the
encoding format used in 5.1 for representing identifiers
in the filesystem (see Section 7.2.3, "Mapping of
Identifiers to Filenames"). However, the statement was
found to be dangerous because it could result in loss of
database contents. See Section 11.1.18, "RENAME DATABASE
Syntax" and Section 11.1.1, "ALTER DATABASE Syntax."

Bug#28360:http://bugs.mysql.com/28360)
* Replication: MySQL Cluster: Row-based replication from or
to a big-endian machine where the table used the NDB
storage engine failed, if the same table on the other
machine was either non-NDB or the other machine was
little-endian. (Bug#29549:http://bugs.mysql.com/29549,

before the node making the request was fully connected to
the cluster. (Bug#32652:http://bugs.mysql.com/32652)
* MySQL Cluster: A local checkpoint could sometimes be
started before the previous LCP was restorable from a
global checkpoint.
(Bug#32519:http://bugs.mysql.com/32519)
* MySQL Cluster: High numbers of API nodes on a slow or
congested network could cause connection negotiation to
time out prematurely, leading to the following issues:
+ Excessive retries
+ Excessive CPU usage
+ Partially connected API nodes
(Bug#32359:http://bugs.mysql.com/32359)
* MySQL Cluster: The failure of a master node could lead to
subsequent failures in local checkpointing.
(Bug#32160:http://bugs.mysql.com/32160)
* MySQL Cluster: An error with an if statement in
sql/ha_ndbcluster.cc could potentially lead to an
infinite loop in case of failure when working with
AUTO_INCREMENT columns in NDB tables.
(Bug#31810:http://bugs.mysql.com/31810)
* MySQL Cluster: The NDB storage engine code was not safe
for strict-alias optimization in gcc 4.2.1.
(Bug#31761:http://bugs.mysql.com/31761)
* MySQL Cluster: It was possible in some cases for a node
group to be "lost" due to missed local checkpoints
following a system restart.
(Bug#31525:http://bugs.mysql.com/31525)
* MySQL Cluster: A query against a table with TEXT or BLOB
columns that would return more than a certain amount of

See alsoBug#31482:http://bugs.mysql.com/31482
* MySQL Cluster: A query using joins between several large
tables and requiring unique index lookups failed to
complete, eventually returning Uknown Error after a very
long period of time. This occurred due to inadequate
handling of instances where the Transaction Coordinator

* MySQL Cluster: An invalid subselect on an NDB table could
cause mysqld to crash.
(Bug#27494:http://bugs.mysql.com/27494)
* MySQL Cluster: An attempt to perform a SELECT ... FROM
INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES whose result included
information about NDB tables for which the user had no
privileges crashed the MySQL Server on which the query
was performed. (Bug#26793:http://bugs.mysql.com/26793)
* MySQL Cluster: Performing DELETE operations after a data
node had been shut down could lead to inconsistent data
following a restart of the node.
(Bug#26450:http://bugs.mysql.com/26450)
* MySQL Cluster: UPDATE IGNORE could sometimes fail on NDB
tables due to the use of unitialized data when checking
for duplicate keys to be ignored.
(Bug#25817:http://bugs.mysql.com/25817)
* MySQL Cluster: The cluster log was formatted
inconsistently and contained extraneous newline

than 1 REDO phase was in use.
(Bug#22696:http://bugs.mysql.com/22696)
* MySQL Cluster: When inserting a row into an NDB table
with a duplicate value for a non-primary unique key, the
error issued would reference the wrong key.
This improves on an initial fix for this issue made in
MySQL 5.1.13. (Bug#21072:http://bugs.mysql.com/21072)
* MySQL Cluster: An insufficiently descriptive and
potentially misleading Error 4006 (Connect failure - out
of connection objects...) was produced when either of the
following two conditions occurred:
1. There were no more transaction records in the
transaction coordinator
2. an Ndb object in the NDB API was initialized with
insufficient parallellism
Separate error messages are now generated for each of
these two cases. (Bug#11313:http://bugs.mysql.com/11313)

* Partitioning: It was not possible to insert the greatest
possible value for a given data type into a partitioned
table. For example, consider a table defined as shown
here:
CREATE TABLE t (c BIGINT UNSIGNED)
PARTITION BY RANGE(c) (
PARTITION p0 VALUES LESS THAN MAXVALUE
);
The largest possible value for a BIGINT UNSIGNED column
is 18446744073709551615, but the statement INSERT INTO t
VALUES (18446744073709551615); would fail, even though
the same statement succeeded were t not a partitioned
table.
In other words, MAXVALUE was treated as being equal to
the greatest possible value, rather than as a least upper
bound. (Bug#29258:http://bugs.mysql.com/29258)
* Replication: When dropping a database containing a stored
procedure while using row-cased replication, the delete
of the stored procedure from the mysql.proc table was
recorded in the binary log following the DROP DATABASE
statement. To correct this issue, DROP DATABASE now uses
statement-based replication.
(Bug#32435:http://bugs.mysql.com/32435)
* Replication: It was possible for the name of the relay
log file to exceed the amount of memory reserved for it,
possibly leading to a crash of the server.

* Replication: Corruption of log events caused the server
to crash on 64-bit Linux systems having 4 GB of memory or
more. (Bug#31793:http://bugs.mysql.com/31793)
* Replication: Trying to replicate an update of a row that
was missing on the slave led to a failure on the slave.
(Bug#31702:http://bugs.mysql.com/31702)
* Replication: Table names were displayed as binary
"garbage" characters in slave error messages. The issue
was observed on 64-bit Windows but may have effected
other platforms. (Bug#30854:http://bugs.mysql.com/30854)
* Replication: One thread could read uninitialized memory
from the stack of another thread. This issue was only
known to occur in a mysqld process acting as both a
master and a slave.
(Bug#30752:http://bugs.mysql.com/30752)
* Replication: It was possible to set
SQL_SLAVE_SKIP_COUNTER such that the slave would jump
into the middle of a transaction. This fix improves on
one made for this bug in MySQL 5.1.20; the previous fix
insured that the slave could not be made to jump into the
middle of an event group, but the slave failed to
recognize that BEGIN, COMMIT, and ROLLBACK statements
could begin or end an event group.
(Bug#28618:http://bugs.mysql.com/28618)

* Replication: An UPDATE statement using a stored function
that modified a non-transactional table was not logged if
it failed. This caused the copy of the non-transactional
table on the master have a row that the copy on the slave
did not. (Bug#23333:http://bugs.mysql.com/23333)

* Replication: A replication slave sometimes failed to
reconnect because it was unable to run SHOW SLAVE HOSTS.
It was not necessary to run this statement on slaves
(since the master should track connection IDs), and the
execution of this statement by slaves was removed.

stopped processing relay logs. This resulted in the logs
never being cleared and the slave eventually running out
of disk space. (Bug#31958:http://bugs.mysql.com/31958)
* Cluster Replication: A node failure during replication
could lead to buckets out of order; now active
subscribers are checked for, rather than empty buckets.

* The correct data type for a NULL column resulting from a
UNION could be determined incorrectly in some cases: 1)
Not correctly inferred as NULL depending on the number of
selects; 2) Not inferred correctly as NULL if one select
used a subquery. (Bug#32848:http://bugs.mysql.com/32848)
* For queries containing GROUP_CONCAT(DISTINCT col_list
ORDER BY col_list), there was a limitation that the
DISTINCT columns had to be the same as ORDER BY columns.
Incorrect results could be returned if this was not true.

assertion if the length of the BIT column used for the
GROUP BY was not an integer multiple of 8.
(Bug#32556:http://bugs.mysql.com/32556)
* Using SELECT INTO OUTFILE with 8-bit ENCLOSED BY
characters led to corrupted data when the data was
reloaded using LOAD DATA INFILE. This was because SELECT
INTO OUTFILE failed to escape the 8-bit characters.
(Bug#32533:http://bugs.mysql.com/32533)
* For FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK, the server failed to
properly detect write-locked tables when running with
low-priority updates, resulting in a crash or deadlock.

connection running SELECT SLEEP() could freeze the
server. (Bug#32436:http://bugs.mysql.com/32436)
* ssl-cipher values in option files were not being read by
libmysqlclient. (Bug#32429:http://bugs.mysql.com/32429)
* Repeated execution of a query containing a CASE
expression and numerous AND and OR relations could crash
the server. The root cause of the issue was determined to
be that the internal SEL_ARG structure was not properly
initialized when created.
(Bug#32403:http://bugs.mysql.com/32403)
* Referencing within a subquery an alias used in the SELECT
list of the outer query was incorrectly permitted.

* Assigning a 65,536-byte string to a TEXT column (which
can hold a maximum of 65,535 bytes) resulted in
truncation without a warning. Now a truncation warning is
generated. (Bug#32282:http://bugs.mysql.com/32282)
* MIN() and MAX() could return incorrect results when an
index was present if a loose index scan was used.
(Bug#32268:http://bugs.mysql.com/32268)
* Some uses of user variables in a query could result in a
server crash. (Bug#32260:http://bugs.mysql.com/32260)
* Memory corruption could occur due to large index map in
Range checked for each record status reported by EXPLAIN
SELECT. The problem was based in an incorrectly
calculated length of the buffer used to store a
hexadecimal representation of an index map, which could
result in buffer overrun and stack corruption under some
circumstances. (Bug#32241:http://bugs.mysql.com/32241)
* Various test program cleanups were made: 1) mytest and
libmysqltest were removed. 2) bug25714 displays an error
