ANALYSIS: ========= 'CREATE TABLE' query with a large value for 'CONNECTION' string reports an incorrect error. The length of connection string is stored in .frm in two bytes (max value= 65535). When the string length exceeds the max value, the length is truncated to fit the two bytes limit. Further processing leads to reading only a part of the string as the length stored is incorrect. The remaining part of the string is treated as engine type and hence results in an error. FIX: ==== We are now restricting the connection string length to 1024. An appropriate error is reported if the length crosses this limit. NOTE: ===== The 'PASSWORD' table option is documented as unused and processed within a dead code. Hence it will not cause similar issue with large strings.
