Warning:
Cockroach Labs has discovered a bug relating to incremental backups, for CockroachDB v19.1.0 - v19.1.11. If a backup coincides with an in-progress index creation (backfill), RESTORE, or IMPORT, it is possible that a subsequent incremental backup will not include all of the indexed, restored or imported data.
For more information, including other affected versions, see Technical Advisory 63162.

Security updates
- Previous versions of CockroachDB were incorrectly enabling non-admin SQL users to use the statements details in the Admin UI and the HTTP endpoint
/_status/statements. This information is sensitive because the endpoint does not hide data that the requester does not have privilege over. This has been corrected by requiring a SQLadminuser to access the statements details page and the HTTP endpoint. #44355
Admin UI changes
- We previously introduced a fix on the admin UI to prevent non-admin SQL users from executing queries - however, this accidentally made certain pages requiring table details not to display. This error has now been fixed. #44193
Bug fixes
- Fixed a bug where repeated use of
COPY FROM PARENTon an index or partition could cause an unexpected validation error. #44266 - Fixed a planning bug related to
FULLjoins between single-row relations. #44242 - Fixed incorrect plans in very rare cases involving filters that aren't constant folded in the optimizer but that can be evaluated statically when running a given query. #44602
- Fixed "no output column equivalent to.." and "column not in input" errors in some cases involving
DISTINCT ONandORDER BY. [#44598][#44598] - Fixed "expected constant FD to be strict" internal error. #44599
- Fixed a bug where running a query with the
LIKEoperator using the customESCAPEsymbol when the pattern contained Unicode characters could result in an internal error in CockroachDB. #44649 - Fixed possibly incorrect query results in various cornercases, especially when
SELECT DISTINCTis used. #44606 - Fixed an internal error that could happen in the planner when table statistics were collected manually using
CREATE STATISTICSfor different columns at different times. #44443 - CockroachDB no longer repeatedly looks for non-existing jobs, which may cause high memory usage, when cleaning up schema changes. #44824
