  - SQLite before 3.54.0 built with FTS3/FTS4 and SQLITE_ENABLE_FTS3_PARENTHESIS contains a use-after-free
    vulnerability in fts3BestSnippet() caused by dangling cached position-list pointers. Attackers can run a
    full-text MATCH query combining OR and NEAR operators with snippet() to read freed heap memory and crash
    the process. (CVE-2026-119372)
