Fixed buffer overflow in password handling which could
            potentially be exploited by MySQL users with
            ALTER privilege on the
            mysql.user table to execute random code
            or to gain shell access with the UID of the mysqld process
            (thanks to Jedi/Sector One for spotting and reporting this
            bug).
          
            mysqldump now correctly quotes all
            identifiers when communicating with the server. This assures
            that during the dump process, mysqldump
            will never send queries to the server that result in a
            syntax error. This problem is
            not related to the
            mysqldump program's output, which was not
            changed. (Bug#1148)
          
Fixed table/column grant handling - proper sort order (from most specific to less specific, see Secção 4.3.10, “Controle de Acesso, Estágio 2: Verificação da Requisição”) was not honored. (Bug#928)
            Fixed overflow bug in MyISAM and
            ISAM when a row is updated in a table
            with a large number of columns and at least one
            BLOB/TEXT column.
          
            Fixed MySQL so that field length (in C API) for the second
            column in SHOW CREATE TABLE is always
            larger than the data length. The only known application that
            was affected by the old behaviour was Borland dbExpress,
            which truncated the output from the command. (Bug#1064)
          
            Fixed ISAM bug in
            MAX() optimization.
          
            Fixed Unknown error when doing
            ORDER BY on reference table which was
            used with NULL value on NOT
            NULL column. (Bug#479)
