SQL Server 2008 R2 Service Pack 2 Cumulative Update # 4

  • 34 fixes are listed at time of publication
  • Build number is 10.50.4270
  • Relevant for @@VERSION 10.50.4000 through 10.50.4269

My usual disclaimer: these updates are NOT for SQL Server 2008. Only apply to systems where @@VERSION returns 10.50.xxxx, where xxxx is >= 2500. If xxxx < 2500, you need to start thinking about getting off the RTM branch.
