CVE-2017-10989

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions SQLite versions prior to 3.19.4

Description The issue is related to the getNodeSize function in SQLite, which mishandles undersized RTree blobs in a crafted database. This can lead to a heap-based buffer over-read or possibly other unspecified impacts. The vulnerability is caused by a buffer overflow in memory, allowing a remote attacker to potentially exploit it by using reduced-size RTree blobs in a created database.

Recommendations For SQLite versions prior to 3.19.4, update to version 3.19.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to crafted databases that may contain undersized RTree blobs to minimize the risk of exploitation.
