Description:
mysql-community-release packages for CentOS 7.5 or later at http://repo.mysql.com/ and include older files.
http://repo.mysql.com/mysql-community-release-el7-5.noarch.rpm
http://repo.mysql.com/mysql-community-release-el7-7.noarch.rpm

It seems that they include yum repository files for MySQL 5.6, so they should be updated to the latest.

How to repeat:
Install the packages from the URL below on CentOS 7.5 or later.
http://repo.mysql.com/mysql-community-release-el7-5.noarch.rpm
http://repo.mysql.com/mysql-community-release-el7-7.noarch.rpm

And then, check the files below in /etc/yum.repos.d directory
- mysql-community.repo
- mysql-community-source.repo

Suggested fix:
Update the files in the RPM packages to the lates like as 
http://repo.mysql.com/mysql-community-release-el7-1.noarch.rpm
