If we're talking about favourite bug https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id=21153 is mine
It's "not a bug" because you can change some of the default query planning parameters to avoid it:
To me that speaks volumes. Sure, you can tweak a db params to get better performance, but I shouldn't have to deviate from the default for it to simply work at all!
Join with many tables hangs mysql (and taking 100% cpu)
Description:
the following query hangs the mysql server taking 100% cpu. also an "explain" of the query hangs the server!

This is not a bug.
The reported query is a 18-way join. For such queries we expect that the full search for the best execution plan will take a significant amount of time.
At the same due to a specific structure of the reported query we can hope to get a good execution plan with a limited search (see Manual 5.0: 7.5.3. Controlling Query Optimizer Performance).
Setting the value of the global variable 'optimizer_search_depth' to 4 or even to 2 we can get the same execution plan as with a full search. Yet it will take much less time:

Best / worst MySQL bug was one introduced and fixed twice. Someone put
in a short cut that sped up order by by quite a bit. It also meant
that order by desc would actually get order by asc output. It was
inserted into the code due to poor oversite / code review practices,
then fixed about 9 months later, then introduced again, and again,
took about a year to fix.
The fact that it was introduced into a General Release mid stream with
no testing or real reviews speaks volumes about MySQL and its
developers. The fact that it took months to years to fix each time
does as well.
As someone who has gotten more than one bug fix from pgsql in less
than 48 hours, I feel sorry for anyone who finds a bug in a MySQL
version they are running in production.
