Technical details
A heap buffer overflow exists in the fts5DoSecureDelete() function when FTS5 is enabled, triggered by corrupted footer key offsets in a malicious FTS5 index. The vulnerability requires the attacker to supply a crafted database file and have the application perform a DELETE operation with secure-delete mode enabled. This results in out-of-bounds writes to heap memory, leading to application crash or potential code execution.
