CVE-ID: CVE-2020-13630

CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free

Exploit availability: No

Description

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to compromise vulnerable system.

The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the fts3EvalNextRow() function in ext/fts3/fts3.c. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted data to application, trigger a use-after-free error and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of the vulnerability may allow an attacker to compromise vulnerable system.
