In function log_event.cc:Query_log_event::write, there was a cast that was triggering undefined behavior. The offending cast is the following: write_str_with_code_and_len((char **)(&start), catalog, catalog_len, Q_CATALOG_NZ_CODE); This results in calling write_str_with_code_and_len with first argument pointing to a (char **) while "start" is itself a pointer to uchar (uchar *). Inside write_str_with_..., the content of start is then be updated: (*dst)+= len; The instruction above would cause the (*dst) pointer (ie, the "start" argument, from the caller point of view, and which actually points to uchar instead of pointing to char) to be updated so that it would increment catalog_len. However, this seems to break strict-aliasing rules ultimately causing the increment and assignment to behave unexpectedly. We fix this by removing the cast and by making the types match.
