RHEL 8 : sqlite (RHSA-2021:4396)

high Nessus Plugin ID 155211

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-2021:4396 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: out-of-bounds access due to the use of 32-bit memory allocator interfaces (CVE-2019-5827)

* sqlite: dropping of shadow tables not restricted in defensive mode (CVE-2019-13750)

* sqlite: fts3: improve detection of corrupted records (CVE-2019-13751)

* sqlite: mishandling of certain SELECT statements with non-existent VIEW can lead to DoS (CVE-2019-19603)

* sqlite: NULL pointer dereference in sqlite3ExprCodeTarget() (CVE-2020-13435)
