It was discovered that there was a denial of service attack in the SQLite database, often embedded into other programs and servers.
In the event of a semantic error in an aggregate query, SQLite did not return early from the "resetAccumulator()" function which would lead to a crash via a segmentation fault.
SQLite through 3.31.1 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via a malformed window-function query because the AggInfo object's initialization is mishandled.
For Debian 8 Jessie
, these problems have been fixed in version
3.8.7.1-1+deb8u5.
We recommend that you upgrade your sqlite3 packages.
