MySQL is a free software and the most widely used SQL engine for data storage.

It can be used as a fast database as well as a rock-solid SGDB using a modular engine architecture.

This release is the raw source of MySQL. For various binaries check the Windows, Linux and Mac versions.

What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

· Small sort_buffer_size values could result in a server crash.
· The libmysqlclient_r client library exported symbols from yaSSL that conflict with OpenSSL. If a program linked against that library and libcurl, it could crash with a segmentation fault.
· The argument for LIMIT must be an integer, but if the argument was given by a placeholder in a prepared statement, the server did not reject noninteger values such as '5'.
· Access to INFORMATION_SCHEMA tables through a view could leak memory.
· A query for a FEDERATED table could return incorrect results when the underlying table had a compound index on two columns and the query included an AND condition on the columns.
· The argument to the --ssl-key option was not verified to exist and be a valid key. The resulting connection used SSL, but the key was not used.
· In debug builds, an InnoDB assertion was overly aggressive about prohibiting an open range.
· Adding a LIMIT clause to a query containing GROUP BY and ORDER BY could cause the optimizer to choose an incorrect index for processing the query, and return more rows than required.
· mysqlbinlog did not accept input on the standard input when the standard input was a pipe.
