Dear MySQL users,
MySQL Community Server 5.0.81, a new version of the popular Open Source
Database Management System, has been released. This release of the MySQL
Community Server is based on the MySQL Enterprise Server 5.0.80 code
base. Future releases in the MySQL Community Server 5.0 release series
will share version numbers with their corresponding MySQL Enterprise
Server counterparts.
The release is now available in source and binary form for a number of
platforms from our download pages at
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/
and mirror sites. Note that not all mirror sites may be up to date at
this point in time, so if you can't find this version on some mirror,
please try again later or choose another download site.
We welcome and appreciate your feedback, bug reports, bug fixes,
patches etc.:
http://forge.mysql.com/wiki/Contributing
Please note that we have dropped support for AIX 5.2 as of April 30th as
the platform has reached vendor EOL, and this is the last release of
MySQL 5.0 to include binaries for that platform.
The following section lists important, incompatible and security
changes since the previous (binary) MySQL Community Server 5.0.77
release. The full changelog including many more fixes can be viewed
online at
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/releasenotes-cs-5-0-81.html
This is a bugfix release for the current production release
family. It replaces MySQL 5.0.77.
Functionality added or changed:
* Security Enhancement: To enable stricter control over the
location from which user-defined functions can be loaded,
the plugin_dir system variable has been backported from
MySQL 5.1. If the value is non-empty, user-defined
function object files can be loaded only from the
directory named by this variable. If the value is empty,
the behavior that is used prior to the inclusion of
plugin_dir applies: The UDF object files must be located
in a directory that is searched by your system's dynamic
linker. (Bug#37428: http://bugs.mysql.com/37428)
* A new status variable, Queries, indicates the number of
statements executed by the server. This includes
statements executed within stored programs, unlike the
Questions variable which includes only statements sent to
the server by clients.
(Bug#41131: http://bugs.mysql.com/41131)
* Previously, index hints did not work for FULLTEXT
searches. Now they work as follows:
For natural language mode searches, index hints are
silently ignored. For example, IGNORE INDEX(i) is ignored
with no warning and the index is still used.
For boolean mode searches, index hints are honored.
(Bug#38842: http://bugs.mysql.com/38842)
Bugs fixed:
* Important Change: Security Fix: Additional corrections
were made for the symlink-related privilege problem
originally addressed in MySQL 5.0.60. The original fix
did not correctly handle the data directory path name if
it contained symlinked directories in its path, and the
check was made only at table-creation time, not at
table-opening time later.
(Bug#32167: http://bugs.mysql.com/32167, CVE-2008-2079
(http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2008-2
079))
See also Bug#39277: http://bugs.mysql.com/39277.
* Security Enhancement: The server consumed excess memory
while parsing statements with hundreds or thousands of
nested boolean conditions (such as OR (OR ... (OR ...
))). This could lead to a server crash or incorrect
statement execution, or cause other client statements to
fail due to lack of memory. The latter result constitutes
a denial of service.
(Bug#38296: http://bugs.mysql.com/38296)
* Incompatible Change: There were some problems using
DllMain() hook functions on Windows that automatically do
global and per-thread initialization for libmysqld.dll:
+ Per-thread initialization: MySQL internally counts
the number of active threads, which causes a delay
in my_end() if not all threads have exited. But
there are threads that can be started either by
Windows internally (often in TCP/IP scenarios) or by
users. Those threads do not necessarily use
libmysql.dll functionality but still contribute to
the open-thread count. (One symptom is a five-second
delay in times for PHP scripts to finish.)
+ Process-initialization: my_init() calls WSAStartup
that itself loads DLLs and can lead to a deadlock in
the Windows loader.
To correct these problems, DLL initialization code now is
not invoked from libmysql.dll by default. To obtain the
previous behavior (DLL initialization code will be
called), set the LIBMYSQL_DLLINIT environment variable to
any value. This variable exists only to prevent breakage
of existing Windows-only applications that do not call
mysql_thread_init() and work okay today. Use of
LIBMYSQL_DLLINIT is discouraged and is removed in MySQL
6.0. (Bug#37226: http://bugs.mysql.com/37226,
Bug#33031: http://bugs.mysql.com/33031)
* Incompatible Change: SHOW STATUS took a lot of CPU time
for calculating the value of the
Innodb_buffer_pool_pages_latched status variable. Now
this variable is calculated and included in the output of
SHOW STATUS only if the UNIV_DEBUG symbol is defined at
MySQL build time.
(Bug#36600: http://bugs.mysql.com/36600)
* Incompatible Change: In connection with view creation,
the server created arc directories inside database
directories and maintained useless copies of .frm files
there. Creation and renaming procedures of those copies
as well as creation of arc directories has been
discontinued.
This change does cause a problem when downgrading to
older server versions which manifests itself under these
circumstances:
1. Create a view v_orig in MySQL 5.0.72 or higher.
2. Rename the view to v_new and then back to v_orig.
3. Downgrade to an older 5.0.x server and run
mysql_upgrade.
4. Try to rename v_orig to v_new again. This operation
fails.
As a workaround to avoid this problem, use either of
these approaches:
+ Dump your data using mysqldump before downgrading
and reload the dump file after downgrading.
+ Instead of renaming a view after the downgrade, drop
it and recreate it.
The downgrade problem introduced by the fix for this bug
has been addressed as
Bug#40021: http://bugs.mysql.com/40021.
(Bug#17823: http://bugs.mysql.com/17823)
* Replication: When rotating relay log files, the slave
deletes relay log files and then edits the relay log
index file. Formerly, if the slave shut down unexpectedly
between these two events, the relay log index file could
then reference relay logs that no longer existed.
Depending on the circumstances, this could when
restarting the slave cause either a race condition or the
failure of replication.
(Bug#38826: http://bugs.mysql.com/38826,
Bug#39325: http://bugs.mysql.com/39325)
* In example option files provided in MySQL distributions,
the thread_stack value was increased from 64K to 128K.
(Bug#41577: http://bugs.mysql.com/41577)
* SET PASSWORD caused a server crash if the account name
was given as CURRENT_USER().
(Bug#41456: http://bugs.mysql.com/41456)
* The INFORMATION_SCHEMA.SCHEMA_PRIVILEGES table was
limited to 7680 rows.
(Bug#41079: http://bugs.mysql.com/41079)
* In debug builds, obsolete debug code could be used to
crash the server.
(Bug#41041: http://bugs.mysql.com/41041)
* CHECK TABLE ... FOR UPGRADE did not check for
incompatible collation changes made in MySQL 5.0.48
(Bug#27562: http://bugs.mysql.com/27562,
Bug#29461: http://bugs.mysql.com/29461,
Bug#29499: http://bugs.mysql.com/29499). This also
affects mysqlcheck and mysql_upgrade, which cause that
statement to be executed. See Section 2.18.3, "Checking
Whether Table Indexes Must Be Rebuilt."
(Bug#40984: http://bugs.mysql.com/40984)
See also Bug#39585: http://bugs.mysql.com/39585.
* Some queries that used a "range checked for each record"
scan could return incorrect results.
(Bug#40974: http://bugs.mysql.com/40974)
* Certain SELECT queries could fail with a Duplicate entry
error. (Bug#40953: http://bugs.mysql.com/40953)
* The FEDERATED handler had a memory leak.
(Bug#40875: http://bugs.mysql.com/40875)
* IF(..., CAST(longtext_val AS UNSIGNED), signed_val) as an
argument to an aggregate function could cause an
assertion failure.
(Bug#40761: http://bugs.mysql.com/40761)
* Prepared statements allowed invalid dates to be inserted
when the ALLOW_INVALID_DATES SQL mode was not enabled.
(Bug#40365: http://bugs.mysql.com/40365)
* mc.exe is no longer needed to compile MySQL on Windows.
This makes it possible to build MySQL from source using
Visual Studio Express 2008.
(Bug#40280: http://bugs.mysql.com/40280)
* Support for the revision field in .frm files has been
removed. This addresses the downgrading problem
introduced by the fix for
Bug#17823: http://bugs.mysql.com/17823.
(Bug#40021: http://bugs.mysql.com/40021)
* If the operating system is configured to return leap
seconds from OS time calls or if the MySQL server uses a
time zone definition that has leap seconds, functions
such as NOW() could return a value having a time part
that ends with :59:60 or :59:61. If such values are
inserted into a table, they would be dumped as is by
mysqldump but considered invalid when reloaded, leading
to backup/restore problems.
Now leap second values are returned with a time part that
ends with :59:59. This means that a function such as
NOW() can return the same value for two or three
consecutive seconds during the leap second. It remains
true that literal temporal values having a time part that
ends with :59:60 or :59:61 are considered invalid.
For additional details about leap-second handling, see
Section 9.7.2, "Time Zone Leap Second Support."
(Bug#39920: http://bugs.mysql.com/39920)
* The server could crash during a sort-order optimization
of a dependent subquery.
(Bug#39844: http://bugs.mysql.com/39844)
* With the ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY SQL mode enabled, the check
for non-aggregated columns in queries with aggregate
functions, but without a GROUP BY clause was treating all
the parts of the query as if they were in the select
list. This is fixed by ignoring the non-aggregated
columns in the WHERE clause.
(Bug#39656: http://bugs.mysql.com/39656)
* The server crashed if an integer field in a CSV file did
not have delimiting quotes.
(Bug#39616: http://bugs.mysql.com/39616)
* CHECK TABLE failed for MyISAM INFORMATION_SCHEMA tables.
(Bug#39541: http://bugs.mysql.com/39541)
* InnoDB could hang trying to open an adaptive hash index.
(Bug#39483: http://bugs.mysql.com/39483)
* For a TIMESTAMP column in an InnoDB table, testing the
column with multiple conditions in the WHERE clause
caused a server crash.
(Bug#39353: http://bugs.mysql.com/39353)
* The server returned a column type of VARBINARY rather
than DATE as the result from the COALESCE(), IFNULL(),
IF(), GREATEST(), or LEAST() functions or CASE expression
if the result was obtained using filesort in an anonymous
temporary table during the query execution.
(Bug#39283: http://bugs.mysql.com/39283)
* References to local variables in stored procedures are
replaced with NAME_CONST(name, value) when written to the
binary log. However, an "illegal mix of collation" error
might occur when executing the log contents if the
value's collation differed from that of the variable. Now
information about the variable collation is written as
well. (Bug#39182: http://bugs.mysql.com/39182)
* Some recent releases for Solaris 10 were built on Solaris
10 U5, which included a new version of libnsl.so that
does not work on U4 or earlier. To correct this, Solaris
10 builds now are created on machines that do not have
that upgraded libnsl.so, so that they will work on
Solaris 10 installations both with and without the
upgraded libnsl.so.
(Bug#39074: http://bugs.mysql.com/39074)
* With binary logging enabled CREATE VIEW was subject to
possible buffer overwrite and a server crash.
(Bug#39040: http://bugs.mysql.com/39040)
* Queries of the form SELECT ... REGEXP BINARY NULL could
lead to a hung or crashed server.
(Bug#39021: http://bugs.mysql.com/39021)
* Statements of the form INSERT ... SELECT .. ON DUPLICATE
KEY UPDATE col_name = DEFAULT could result in a server
crash. (Bug#39002: http://bugs.mysql.com/39002)
* Column names constructed due to wild-card expansion done
inside a stored procedure could point to freed memory if
the expansion was performed after the first call to the
stored procedure.
(Bug#38823: http://bugs.mysql.com/38823)
* Repeated CREATE TABLE ... SELECT statements, where the
created table contained an AUTO_INCREMENT column, could
lead to an assertion failure.
(Bug#38821: http://bugs.mysql.com/38821)
* If delayed insert failed to upgrade the lock, it did not
free the temporary memory storage used to keep newly
constructed BLOB values in memory, resulting in a memory
leak. (Bug#38693: http://bugs.mysql.com/38693)
* A server crash resulted from concurrent execution of a
multiple-table UPDATE that used a NATURAL or USING join
together with FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK or ALTER TABLE
for the table being updated.
(Bug#38691: http://bugs.mysql.com/38691)
* On ActiveState Perl, mysql-test-run.pl --start-and-exit
started but did not exit.
(Bug#38629: http://bugs.mysql.com/38629)
* Server-side cursors were not initialized properly, which
could cause a server crash.
(Bug#38486: http://bugs.mysql.com/38486)
* Stored procedures involving substrings could crash the
server on certain platforms due to invalid memory reads.
(Bug#38469: http://bugs.mysql.com/38469)
* A server crash or Valgrind warnings could result when a
stored procedure selected from a view that referenced a
function. (Bug#38291: http://bugs.mysql.com/38291)
* Incorrect handling of aggregate functions when loose
index scan was used caused a server crash.
(Bug#38195: http://bugs.mysql.com/38195)
* Queries containing a subquery with DISTINCT and ORDER BY
could cause a server crash.
(Bug#38191: http://bugs.mysql.com/38191)
* Queries with a HAVING clause could return a spurious row.
(Bug#38072: http://bugs.mysql.com/38072)
* Use of spatial data types in prepared statements could
cause memory leaks or server crashes.
(Bug#37956: http://bugs.mysql.com/37956,
Bug#37671: http://bugs.mysql.com/37671)
* The server crashed if an argument to a stored procedure
was a subquery that returned more than one row.
(Bug#37949: http://bugs.mysql.com/37949)
* When analyzing the possible index use cases, the server
was incorrectly reusing an internal structure, leading to
a server crash. (Bug#37943: http://bugs.mysql.com/37943)
* A SELECT with a NULL NOT IN condition containing a
complex subquery from the same table as in the outer
select caused an assertion failure.
(Bug#37894: http://bugs.mysql.com/37894)
* For InnoDB tables, ORDER BY ... DESC sometimes returned
results in ascending order.
(Bug#37830: http://bugs.mysql.com/37830)
* If a table has a BIT NOT NULL column c1 with a length
shorter than 8 bits and some additional NOT NULL columns
c2, ..., and a SELECT query has a WHERE clause of the
form (c1 = constant) AND c2 ..., the query could return
an unexpected result set.
(Bug#37799: http://bugs.mysql.com/37799)
* Nesting of IF() inside of SUM() could cause an extreme
server slowdown. (Bug#37662: http://bugs.mysql.com/37662)
* The MONTHNAME() and DAYNAME() functions returned a binary
string, so that using LOWER() or UPPER() had no effect.
Now MONTHNAME() and DAYNAME() return a value in
character_set_connection character set.
(Bug#37575: http://bugs.mysql.com/37575)
* TIMEDIFF() was erroneously treated as always returning a
positive result. Also, CAST() of TIME values to DECIMAL
dropped the sign of negative values.
(Bug#37553: http://bugs.mysql.com/37553)
See also Bug#42525: http://bugs.mysql.com/42525.
* mysqlcheck used SHOW FULL TABLES to get the list of
tables in a database. For some problems, such as an empty
.frm file for a table, this would fail and mysqlcheck
then would neglect to check other tables in the database.
(Bug#37527: http://bugs.mysql.com/37527)
* The <=> operator could return incorrect results when
comparing NULL to DATE, TIME, or DATETIME values.
(Bug#37526: http://bugs.mysql.com/37526)
* Updating a view with a subquery in the CHECK option could
cause an assertion failure.
(Bug#37460: http://bugs.mysql.com/37460)
* Statements that displayed the value of system variables
(for example, SHOW VARIABLES) expect variable values to
be encoded in character_set_system. However, variables
set from the command line such as basedir or datadir were
encoded using character_set_filesystem and not converted
correctly. (Bug#37339: http://bugs.mysql.com/37339)
* For a MyISAM table with CHECKSUM = 1 and ROW_FORMAT =
DYNAMIC table options, a data consistency check (maximum
record length) could fail and cause the table to be
marked as corrupted.
(Bug#37310: http://bugs.mysql.com/37310)
* The max_length result set metadata value was calculated
incorrectly under some circumstances.
(Bug#37301: http://bugs.mysql.com/37301)
* CREATE INDEX could crash with InnoDB plugin 1.0.1.
(Bug#37284: http://bugs.mysql.com/37284)
* Certain boolean-mode FULLTEXT searches that used the
truncation operator did not return matching records and
calculated relevance incorrectly.
(Bug#37245: http://bugs.mysql.com/37245)
* The NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES SQL mode was ignored for LOAD
DATA INFILE and SELECT INTO ... OUTFILE. The setting is
taken into account now.
(Bug#37114: http://bugs.mysql.com/37114)
* On a 32-bit server built without big tables support, the
offset argument in a LIMIT clause might be truncated due
to a 64-bit to 32-bit cast.
(Bug#37075: http://bugs.mysql.com/37075)
* If the server failed to expire binary log files at
startup, it could crash.
(Bug#37027: http://bugs.mysql.com/37027)
* The code for the ut_usectime() function in InnoDB did not
handle errors from the gettimeofday() system call. Now it
retries gettimeofday() several times and updates the
value of the Innodb_row_lock_time_max status variable
only if ut_usectime() was successful.
(Bug#36819: http://bugs.mysql.com/36819)
* Use of CONVERT() with GROUP BY to convert numeric values
to CHAR could return truncated results.
(Bug#36772: http://bugs.mysql.com/36772)
* A query which had an ORDER BY DESC clause that is
satisfied with a reverse range scan could cause a server
crash for some specific CPU/compiler combinations.
(Bug#36639: http://bugs.mysql.com/36639)
* Dumping information about locks in use by sending a
SIGHUP signal to the server or by invoking the mysqladmin
debug command could lead to a server crash in debug
builds or to undefined behavior in production builds.
(Bug#36579: http://bugs.mysql.com/36579)
* The mysql client, when built with Visual Studio 2005, did
not display Japanese characters.
(Bug#36279: http://bugs.mysql.com/36279)
* When the fractional part in a multiplication of DECIMAL
values overflowed, the server truncated the first operand
rather than the longest. Now the server truncates so as
to produce more precise multiplications.
(Bug#36270: http://bugs.mysql.com/36270)
* A read past the end of the string could occur while
parsing the value of the --innodb-data-file-path option.
(Bug#36149: http://bugs.mysql.com/36149)
* Host name values in SQL statements were not being checked
for '@', which is illegal according to RFC952.
(Bug#35924: http://bugs.mysql.com/35924)
* The UUID() function returned UUIDs with the wrong time;
this was because the offset for the time part in UUIDs
was miscalculated.
(Bug#35848: http://bugs.mysql.com/35848)
* SHOW CREATE TABLE did not display a printable value for
the default value of BIT columns.
(Bug#35796: http://bugs.mysql.com/35796)

* The max_length metadata value was calculated incorrectly
for the FORMAT() function, which could cause incorrect
result set metadata to be sent to clients.
(Bug#35558: http://bugs.mysql.com/35558)
* Index scans performed with the sort_union() access method
returned wrong results, caused memory to be leaked, and
caused temporary files to be deleted when the limit set
by sort_buffer_size was reached.
(Bug#35477: http://bugs.mysql.com/35477,
Bug#35478: http://bugs.mysql.com/35478)
* If the server crashed with an InnoDB error due to
unavailability of undo slots, errors could persist during
rollback when the server was restarted: There are two
UNDO slot caches (for INSERT and UPDATE). If all slots
end up in one of the slot caches, a request for a slot
from the other slot cache would fail. This can happen if
the request is for an UPDATE slot and all slots are in
the INSERT slot cache, or vice versa.

(Bug#24289: http://bugs.mysql.com/24289)
* For access to the INFORMATION_SCHEMA.VIEWS table, the
server did not check the SHOW VIEW and SELECT privileges,
leading to inconsistency between output from that table
and the SHOW CREATE VIEW statement.
(Bug#22763: http://bugs.mysql.com/22763)
* The FLUSH PRIVILEGES statement did not produce an error
when it failed. (Bug#21226: http://bugs.mysql.com/21226)
* A race condition between the mysqld.exe server and the
Windows service manager could lead to inability to stop
the server from the service manager.
(Bug#20430: http://bugs.mysql.com/20430)
* mysqld_safe would sometimes fail to remove the pid file
for the old mysql process after a crash. As a result, the
server would fail to start due to a false A mysqld
process already exists... error.
