Analysis:
The value gets appended as string instead of unescaped json value
Fix:
Append the value of json in a temporary string and then store it in the
field instead of directly storing as string.
non-default collation_connection
Analysis:
Due to different collation, the string has nothing to chop off.
Fix:
Got rid of chop(), only append " ," only when we have more elements to
add to the result.
Analysis:
When we scan json to get to a beginning according to the path, we end up
scanning json even if we have exhausted it. When eventually returns error.
Fix:
Continue scanning json only if we have not exhausted it and return result
accordingly.
Analysis:
When scanning json and getting the exact path at each step, if a path
is reached, we end up adding the item in the result and immediately get the
next item which results in current path changing.
Fix:
Instead of immediately returning the item, count the occurences of the path
in argument and append in the result as needed.
(returns NULL) and for Date/DateTime returns "INTEGER"
Analysis:
When the first character of json is scanned it is number. Based on that
integer is returned.
Fix:
Scan rest of the json before returning the final result to ensure json is
valid in the first place in order to have a valid type.
Modify the NS_ZERO state in the JSON number parser to allow
exponential notation with a zero coefficient (e.g. 0E-4).
The NS_ZERO state transition on 'E' was updated to move to the
NS_EX state rather than returning a syntax error. Similar change
was made for the NS_ZE1 (negative zero) starter state.
This allows accepted number grammar to include cases like:
- 0E4
- -0E-10
which were previously disallowed. Numeric parsing remains
the same for all other states.
Test cases are added to func_json.test to validate parsing for
various exponential numbers starting with zero coefficients.

Fix by Alexey Botchkov
The 'value_len' is calculated wrong for the multibyte charsets. In the
read_strn() function we get the length of the string with the final ' " '
character. So have to subtract it's length from the value_len. And the
length of '1' isn't correct for the ucs2 charset (must be 2).
Analysis:
When we skip level when path is found, it changes the state of the json
engine. This breaks the sequence for json_get_path_next() which is called at
the end to ensure json document is valid and leads to crash.
Fix:
Use json_scan_next() at the end to check if json document has correct
syntax (is valid).
Analysis: The JSON functions(JSON_ARRAY[OBJECT|ARRAY_APPEND|ARRAY_INSERT|INSERT|SET|REPLACE]) result is truncated when the function is called based on LONGTEXT field. The overflow occurs when computing the result length due to the LONGTEXT max length is same as uint32 max length. It lead to wrong result length.
Fix: Add static_cast<ulonglong> to avoid uint32 overflow and fix the arguments used.
Analysis: JSON_VALUE() returns "null" string instead of NULL pointer.
Fix: When the type is JSON_VALUE_NULL (which is also a scalar) set
null_value to true and return 0 instead of returning string.
