Functionality Added or Changed

  • Added support for the caching_sha2_password authentication plugin used in MySQL 8.0.4 server and higher. This update is required during the server configuration step to start the server, which now uses SHA-2 password caching instead of native authentication as in previous server versions. (Bug #27261158)
