"The version of SQLite installed on the remote host is prior to 3.53.2. It is, therefore,
affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

  - A heap-based buffer overflow vulnerability in the FTS5 full-text search extension
    allows attackers to cause a crash or execute arbitrary code by supplying a crafted
    database with malicious continuation page metadata specifying a szLeaf value smaller
    than 4. An integer underflow in fts5ChunkIterate() causes an inflated remaining byte
    count during FTS5 MATCH query processing, leading to a heap buffer overflow of
    attacker-controlled data. (CVE-2026-11824)

  - Memory corruption vulnerabilities in the FTS5 full-text search extension allow
    attackers to cause process crashes, memory exhaustion, or arbitrary code execution by
    supplying a crafted database with malformed FTS5 page data. An out-of-bounds read in
    fts5LeafSeek() via an attacker-controlled loop bound and a heap buffer overflow write
    in fts5ChunkIterate() through a crafted continuation page causing an integer underflow
    are exploitable when an FTS5 MATCH query is executed against the malicious database.
    (CVE-2026-11822)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's
self-reported version number.");
