Research direction
Start by running the supplied CREATE TABLE, INSERT, and SELECT reproduction against TiFlash and compare the result with the expected output. Trace the handling of VARBINARY-to-BINARY casts and binary equality, then add a regression test for this query. Done means the comparison returns 1 while preserving the shown binary values.
