- February 14, 2022
A Memory Leak vulnerabilty exists in SQLite Project SQLite3 3.35.1 and 3.37.0 via maliciously crafted SQL Queries (made via editing the Database File), it is possible to query a record, and leak subsequent bytes of memory that extend beyond the record, which could let a malicous user obtain sensitive information..
Memory Leak
** DISPUTED ** A segmentation fault can occur in the sqlite3.exe command-line component of SQLite 3.36.0
CVE-2021-36690
7.5 - High
- August 24, 2021
** DISPUTED ** A segmentation fault can occur in the sqlite3.exe command-line component of SQLite 3.36.0 via the idxGetTableInfo function when there is a crafted SQL query. NOTE: the vendor disputes the relevance of this report because a sqlite3.exe user already has full privileges (e.g., is intentionally allowed to execute commands). This report does NOT imply any problem in the SQLite library.
