sqlite: use of uninitialized memory when parsing collation sequences in src/where.c
Published Apr 24, 2015
7.5
HIGHCVSS 2.0
EPSS 4.66%
Description
SQLite before 3.8.9 does not properly implement the dequoting of collation-sequence names, which allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (uninitialized memory access and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted COLLATE clause, as demonstrated by COLLATE"""""""" at the end of a SELECT statement.
