Sqlite · Sqlite · CVE-2020-35527
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
SQLite version 3.31.1
**Description**
The issue is caused by an out of bounds access problem through ALTER TABLE for views that have a nested FROM clause. This can be exploited by a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code. The problem is also described as a buffer overflow in the database management system.
**Recommendations**
For SQLite version 3.31.1, consider restricting access to the ALTER TABLE statement for views with nested FROM clauses until a patch is available. As a temporary workaround, avoid using the ALTER TABLE statement on views that have a nested FROM clause to minimize the risk of exploitation. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
