+## Release Information  
+
+Percona Server for MySQL 5.7.44-53 builds on MySQL 5.7.44 Community Edition,

+
+## Bug fixes
+
+* [Bug#36234681](https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/a8c96ce81ab): A `DELETE` operation on a  table with a self-referential foreign key constraint involving a full-text index triggered an assertion. 
+
+* [Bug#37189985](https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/0fe52ea5c8f): Using `ALTER TABLE ... ALGORITHM=INPLACE` may result a in server exits and corrupt spatial indexes when used on a table with an auto-increment column.
+
+* [Bug#33691659](https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/551288baa7a): Performing `ON DELETE CASCADE` on a table with a secondary index on a generated column may cause a server exit in `innobase_get_computed_value`.
+
+* [Bug#33327093](https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/0ac176453bf): An operation attempted to update a virtual column while building an update node for a child table and caused an assertion failure in
+`row_MySQL_pad_col`.
+
+* [Bug#34574604](https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/632ca5cfe1b): The virtual column information for a row containing an externally stored BLOB was not always logged during an `UPDATE` operation and may cause permanent corruptions.
+
+* [Bug#36593235](https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/9a32e4495c5): A subquery containing an aggregate function `WITH ROLLUP` which was part of a row value comparator was not always processed correctly.
+
+* [Bug#37068527](https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/04b8be52e59): When the server is compiled with XCode 16, a bad comparator caused a server exit during the mysqld initialization. 
+
+* [Bug#37132323](https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/dd8b0c5c7d6): The server exited because the database cache wasn't flushed when a user was dropped.
+
+* [Bug#37063288](https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/b76c48b031d): The server exited because AppArmor denied access to the file `/proc/<pid>/task/<thread_id>/mem` which is needed to generate a stack trace.
+
+* [Bug#36615714](https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/6e08d4427fc): Fixes a buffer overrun in my_print_help.
+
+* [Bug#30875669](https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/c510fe1470a): The mysql client now allows to send a query containing a number sign or double dash in an optimizer hint comment.
+
+* [Bug#36879147](https://github.com/mysql/mysql-server/commit/a6b6a6b9861): Adds support to 64 bit `FTS_DOC_ID` doc ids for InnoDB FULLTEXT index where earlier, they were imprecisely limited to the maximum unsigned 32-bit value.
