Using 5.8.1 - edit a build plan's job, going to Environment Variables field, and pasting in a UTF-32 character, such as COMBINING ACUTE ACCENT (U+0301). While the update will be saved to the DB, re-reading the value seems problematic.

            Just a note that if you hit this bug, you must locate and remove data from the database manually. Log files will point you to the build plan and table with the problematic character(s) - you must use a SQL client to clean it up. Until you do so, the bug causes two symptoms:

            • The search boxes in bamboo will be unable to search against any build plans. You will be unable to reference from one build plan to another where a text search is used against build plan names.
            • Bamboo will completely hang an a startup - so it is best to leave the instance running until you have removed the data.
