## Release Notes

### MariaDB Connector/Python 1.0.9

- [Release Notes for MariaDB Connector/Python 1.0.9](https://staging-mdb.com/docs/release-notes/mariadb-connector-python/1-0-9/)

MariaDB Connector/Python 1.0.9 is a Stable (GA) release. Notable changes in this release include:

- If an object of the Connection class, ConnectionPool class, or Cursor class has been closed, the string representation of the object returned by tp\_repr now shows the status of the object

Issues fixed in this release include:

- When the Cursor.callproc() method is called multiple times, it causes a hang
- When the Connection.escape\_string() method is called and a long string is provided as the parameter, it sometimes causes a crash
