Code Injection in PHP - CVE-2010-1868

Vulnerability identifier: #VU110308

CSH Severity: Medium

CVSS v4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]

CVE-ID: CVE-2010-1868

CWE-ID: CWE-94

Exploitation vector: Remote access

Exploit availability: No public exploit available

The vulnerability allows a remote non-authenticated attacker to read and manipulate data.

The (1) sqlite_single_query and (2) sqlite_array_query functions in ext/sqlite/sqlite.c in PHP 5.2 through 5.2.13 and 5.3 through 5.3.2 allow context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code by calling these functions with an empty SQL query, which triggers access of uninitialized memory.
