Alpine: multiple sqlite packages: security update to 3.48.0-r1

medium Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 425675

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities referenced in the following CVEs:

- An integer overflow can be triggered in SQLite’s `concat_ws()` function. The resulting, truncated integer
is then used to allocate a buffer. When SQLite then writes the resulting string to the buffer, it uses the
original, untruncated size and thus a wild Heap Buffer overflow of size ~4GB can be triggered. This can
result in arbitrary code execution. (CVE-2025-3277)

- In SQLite 3.44.0 through 3.49.0 before 3.49.1, the concat_ws() SQL function can cause memory to be written
beyond the end of a malloc-allocated buffer. If the separator argument is attacker-controlled and has a
large string (e.g., 2MB or more), an integer overflow occurs in calculating the size of the result buffer,
and thus malloc may not allocate enough memory. (CVE-2025-29087)
