FreeBSD : sqlite3 -- multiple vulnerabilities (84cd82e1-d49f-11f1-bae2-3497f65b111b)
high Nessus Plugin ID 374537
Synopsis
The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.Description
The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the 84cd82e1-d49f-11f1-bae2-3497f65b111b advisory.VulnCheck reports:
Ten vulnerabilities fixed in SQLite 3.54.0 were published on 2026-10-30. Four of them corrupt the heap: buffer overflows in the FTS5 functions fts5MergeRowidLists() and fts5DoSecureDelete() and in the session extension sessionUpdateFind(), and a use-after-free in the R-Tree function nodeWrite(). A fifth, a use-after-free in the FTS3 function fts3BestSnippet(), is reached through snippet().
The remaining five crash the process or leak data: unbounded recursion through a chain of common table expressions, through a chain of COLLATE operators and through countOfViewOptimization() in a VALUES clause, an information leak on a page size mismatch in the write-ahead log, and an authorizer bypass with RIGHT or FULL JOIN USING.
An attacker has to supply a database file or SQL text, so the FTS5 and FTS3 issues apply wherever those options are built in;
both are on by default in databases/sqlite3.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the FreeBSD security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
