Please withdraw MySQL Workbench Community Edition 8.0.40 x64 immediately!

[GeoSimos]

Hello PMPC team,

Apologies for the bold request in the subject, it was reported to me from a fellow DBA colleague that the latest version of "Oracle MySQL Workbench Community Edition 8.0.40 (x64)" has issues connecting to data sources. He has investigated further and the developers admitted that they omitted authentication plugins from the latest build as stated here Workbench 8.0.40 Authentication plugin not loaded.
Please remove it from your metadata for updates and new/updated applications as it will be replaced, also it would be great if a supersedence is set to version 8.0.38 for the updates as it will make easier the downgrade.

With regards

Oracle has released an updated installer including the fix.  Can you please release v8.0.40 back into the catalog? If you are planning to do so already, can you share a release date so that I can update my management team. 

Thank you!
