Serious issue in latest MariaDB 5.5 anf 10.0 releases

Hi, packagers, MariaDB 5.5.43 and 10.0.18 unfortunately introduced a quite serious bug affecting the mysql_upgrade utility. The new REPAIR VIEW command that mysql_upgrade runs crashes the server on views that contain blob fields. So if you run mysql_upgrade on upgrade automatically and user has such blobs - there will be a crash. This is https://mariadb.atlassian.net/browse/MDEV-8115. We're releasing a fixed 10.0.19 now. But 5.5.44 release has to wait for MySQL-5.5.44 release (about a month, I'd say). If you'd like to package 5.5.43 or 10.0.18, here's a simple patch for this bug: https://github.com/MariaDB/server/commit/0014bdc7 Sorry for this. Regards, Sergei Golubchik MariaDB Security Coordinator
