Description gkamathe 2026-07-29 16:39:07 UTC 
Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

A use-after-free (UAF) vulnerability was discovered in the core parsing component of SQLite 3.41. The flaw occurs because the program frees an ExprList object via sqlite3ExprListDelete and then subsequently accesses the dangling pointer of the released object. A remote adversary can supply specially crafted SQL queries to trigger this vulnerability during SQL statement parsing. Successful exploitation may result in application crash (denial of service), sensitive memory information leakage, and in some scenarios, arbitrary code execution on the affected host.

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 45 development cycle.
Changing version to 45.
