Upgrading to 2.2.5 breaks my django app on windows

[spapas]

Describe the bug

When I upgrade to latest version (2.2.5) I'm getting the following error:

django.db.utils.OperationalError: (2026, 'TLS/SSL error: SSL is required, but the server does not support it')

Haven't change anything else in my app.

When downgrading to 2.2.4 everything works fine.

Breaking changes cannot be introduced on minor versions.

Same thing.
as a quickfix I did:

pip3 install mysqlclient==2.2.4

Yes I also did that but I'd prefer to be able to upgrade to the latest version :)
