+============================
+ |Percona XtraBackup| 2.2.9
+============================
+
+Percona is glad to announce the release of |Percona XtraBackup| 2.2.9 on February 17th 2015. Downloads are available from our download site `here <http://www.percona.com/downloads/XtraBackup/XtraBackup-2.2.9/>`_ and from :ref:`apt <apt_repo>` and :ref:`yum <yum_repo>` repositories. 
+
+This release is the current stable release in the 2.2 series.
+
+Bugs Fixed
+----------
+
+ |Percona XtraBackup| was vulnerable to MITM attack which could allow exfiltration of MySQL configuration information via :option:`innobackupex --version-check` option. This vulnerability was logged as `CVE 2015-1027 <http://www.cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=2015-1027>`_. Bug fixed :bug:`1408375`.
+ 
+ :file:`xtrabackup_galera_info` isn't overwritten during the Galera auto-recovery. Bug fixed :bug:`1418584`. 
+
+ |Percona XtraBackup| man pages are now included with binary packages. Bug fixed :bug:`1156209`.
+
+ |Percona XtraBackup| now sets the maximum supported session value for :option:`lock_wait_timeout` to prevent unnecessary timeouts when the global value is changed from the default. Bug fixed :bug:`1410339`.
+
+ New option :option:`innobackupex --backup-locks`, enabled by default, has been implemented to control if `backup locks <http://www.percona.com/doc/percona-server/5.6/management/backup_locks.html>`_ will be used even if they are supported by the server. To disable backup locks |innobackupex| should be run with :option:`innobackupex --no-backup-locks` option. Bug fixed :bug:`1418820`.
+
+All of Percona's software is open-source and free, all the details of the release can be found in the `2.2.8 milestone <https://launchpad.net/percona-xtrabackup/+milestone/2.2.8>`_ at Launchpad. Bugs can be reported on the `launchpad bug tracker <https://bugs.launchpad.net/percona-xtrabackup/+filebug>`_.
