Debian DLA-1018-1 : sqlite3 security update

critical Nessus Plugin ID 101319

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

It was discovered that there was a heap-based buffer over-read vulnerability in SQLite, a lightweight database engine. The getNodeSize function in ext/rtree/rtree.c mishandled undersized RTree blobs in a specially crafted database,

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', this issue has been fixed in sqlite3 version 3.7.13-1+deb7u4.

We recommend that you upgrade your sqlite3 packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected packages.
