RHEL 8 : sqlite (RHSA-2020:1810)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 136056

Language:

Synopsis

The remote Red Hat host is missing one or more security updates for sqlite.

Description

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:1810 advisory.

SQLite is a C library that implements an SQL database engine. A large subset of SQL92 is supported. A complete database is stored in a single disk file. The API is designed for convenience and ease of use.
Applications that link against SQLite can enjoy the power and flexibility of an SQL database without the administrative hassles of supporting a separate database server.

Security Fix(es):

* sqlite: heap out-of-bound read in function rtreenode() (CVE-2019-8457)

* sqlite: fts3: improve shadow table corruption detection (CVE-2019-13752)

* sqlite: fts3: incorrectly removed corruption check (CVE-2019-13753)

* sqlite: mishandling of certain uses of SELECT DISTINCT involving a LEFT JOIN in flattenSubquery in select.c leads to a NULL pointer dereference (CVE-2019-19923)

* sqlite: incorrect sqlite3WindowRewrite() error handling leads to mishandling certain parser-tree rewriting (CVE-2019-19924)

* sqlite: zipfileUpdate in ext/misc/zipfile.c mishandles a NULL pathname during an update of a ZIP archive (CVE-2019-19925)

* sqlite: mishandles certain uses of INSERT INTO in situations involving embedded '\0' characters in filenames (CVE-2019-19959)
