MySQL 8.0.28
This release fixes the following two issues relating to date and time values:
Inserting a CHAR value such as '12:00:00' into a DATE, DATETIME, or TIMESTAMP column raised the wrong error. In the case of a DATE column, this error was similar to Data truncation: Incorrect date value: '2012-00-00' for column 'd' at row 1. This occurred for both the binary and text protocols.
Inserting a value with an offset into a DATE or TIME column using the binary protocol gave a wrong result. For example, when the connection time zone was set to GMT-5, inserting '2021-10-10 00:00:00.123+01:00' into a TIME column yielded '18:00:00'; that is, the value was converted to the connection time zone (this should be done only with respect to DATEIME columns).

ISC Bind 9.16.25
Overall memory use by named has been optimized and reduced, especially on systems with many CPU cores. The default memory allocator has been switched from internal to external. A new command-line option -M internal allows named to be started with the old internal memory allocator. [GL #2398]
On FreeBSD, TCP connections leaked a small amount of heap memory, leading to an eventual out-of-memory problem. This has been fixed. [GL #3051]
If signatures created by the ZSK were expired and the ZSK private key was offline, the signatures were not replaced. This behavior has been amended to replace the expired signatures with new signatures created using the KSK. [GL #3049]
Under certain circumstances, the signed version of an inline-signed zone could be dumped to disk without the serial number of the unsigned version of the zone. This prevented resynchronization of the zone contents after named restarted, if the unsigned zone file was modified while named was not running. This has been fixed. [GL #3071]

Fixed bug #81216 (Nullsafe operator leaks dynamic property name).
Fixed bug #81684 (Using null coalesce assignment with $GLOBALS["x"] produces opcode error).
Fixed bug #81656 (GCC-11 silently ignores -R).
Fixed bug #81683 (Misleading "access type ... must be public" error message on final or abstract interface methods).
8.0.15
Fixed bug #81656 (GCC-11 silently ignores -R).
Fixed bug #81585 (cached_chunks are not counted to real_size on shutdown).
Fixed FILTER_FLAG_NO_RES_RANGE flag.
Fixed bug #7759 (Incorrect return types for hash() and hash_hmac()).
