    Performance and stability improvements
    Security enhancements

If you upgrade from version 15.1.7 or older, 15.2.2 increases password
security and automatically converts existing MD5 passwords using a more
secure algorithm when users connect for the first time after upgrade.

If an account is not used within 90 days of the upgrade, access is
restricted and the user will not be able to log in afterward. The
administrator will be required to change their password.
