  - An error in 'storage/innobase/dict/dict0crea.c' in 'mysqld' allows remote
  authenticated users to cause a denial of service by modifying the
  innodb_file_format or innodb_file_per_table configuration parameters for
  the InnoDB storage engine.

  - An error in handling of 'IN' or 'CASE' operations with NULL arguments that
  are explicitly specified or indirectly provided by the WITH ROLLUP modifier.

  - An error in handling of certain arguments to the BINLOG command, which
  triggers an access of uninitialized memory.

  - An error in creating temporary tables while using InnoDB, which triggers an
  assertion failure.");
