Severity High
Score 7.5/10

Summary

A segmentation fault can occur in the "sqlite3.exe" command-line component of SQLite through 3.36.0 via the "idxGetTableInfo" function when there is a crafted SQL query. NOTE: the vendor disputes the relevance of this report because a "sqlite3.exe" user already has full privileges (e.g., is intentionally allowed to execute commands). This report does NOT imply any problem in the SQLite library.
