Functionality added or changed:
* The time zone tables available at
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/timezones.html have been
updated. These tables can be used on systems such as
Windows or HP-UX that do not include zoneinfo files.
(Bug#40230:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=40230)
Bugs fixed:
* Security Fix: During evaluation of arguments to
extreme-value functions (such as LEAST() and GREATEST()),
type errors did not propagate properly, causing the
server to crash.
(Bug#55826:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=55826,
CVE-2010-3833
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-3833)
* Security Fix: The server could crash after materializing
a derived table that required a temporary table for
grouping.
(Bug#55568:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=55568,
CVE-2010-3834
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-3834)
* Security Fix: A user-variable assignment expression that
is evaluated in a logical expression context can be
precalculated in a temporary table for GROUP BY. However,
when the expression value is used after creation of the
temporary table, it was re-evaluated, not read from the
table and a server crash resulted.
(Bug#55564:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=55564,
CVE-2010-3835
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-3835)
* Security Fix: Joins involving a table with a unique SET
column could cause a server crash.
(Bug#54575:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=54575,
CVE-2010-3677
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-3677)
* Security Fix: Pre-evaluation of LIKE predicates during
view preparation could cause a server crash.
(Bug#54568:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=54568,
CVE-2010-3836
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-3836)
* Security Fix: GROUP_CONCAT() and WITH ROLLUP together
could cause a server crash.
(Bug#54476:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=54476,
CVE-2010-3837
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-3837)
* Security Fix: Queries could cause a server crash if the
GREATEST() or LEAST() function had a mixed list of
numeric and LONGBLOB arguments, and the result of such a
function was processed using an intermediate temporary
table.
(Bug#54461:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=54461,
CVE-2010-3838
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-3838)
* Security Fix: Using EXPLAIN with queries of the form
SELECT ... UNION ... ORDER BY (SELECT ... WHERE ...)
could cause a server crash.
(Bug#52711:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=52711,
CVE-2010-3682
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2010-3682)
* InnoDB Storage Engine: Creating or dropping a table with
1023 transactions active caused an assertion failure.
(Bug#49238:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=49238)
* The make_binary_distribution target to make could fail on
some platforms because the lines generated were too long
for the shell.
(Bug#54590:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=54590)
* A client could supply data in chunks to a prepared
statement parameter other than of type TEXT or BLOB using
the mysql_stmt_send_long_data() C API function (or
COM_STMT_SEND_LONG_DATA command). This led to a crash
because other data types are not valid for long data.
(Bug#54041:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=54041)
* Builds of the embedded mysqld would fail due to a missing
element of the struct NET.
(Bug#53908:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=53908,
Bug#53912:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=53912)
* The definition of the MY_INIT macro in my_sys.h included
an extraneous semicolon, which could cause compilation
failure.
(Bug#53906:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=53906)
* If the remote server for a FEDERATED table could not be
accessed, queries for the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES table
failed.
(Bug#35333:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=35333)
* mysqld could fail during execution when using SSL.
(Bug#34236:http://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=34236)
* Threads that were calculating the estimated number of
records for a range scan did not respond to the KILL
statement. That is, if a range join type is possible
(even if not selected by the optimizer as a join type of
choice and thus not shown by EXPLAIN), the query in the
statistics state (shown by the SHOW PROCESSLIST) did not
respond to the KILL statement.
