Impact

SQLite 3.41 includes a use‑after‑free flaw within the JSON extraction routine. When a JsonParse object is freed, the library subsequently accesses memory belonging to the freed pointer, causing a program crash. This crash results in a denial‑of‑service condition for the affected process.

Affected Systems

Any application that uses SQLite 3.41 and invokes the JSON extraction functions is potentially impacted. The issue is specific to the 3.41 release; newer releases may address it.

Risk and Exploitability

The CVSS score of 6.2 indicates a moderate severity. No EPSS score is provided, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV, suggesting no widespread exploitation yet. The attack can be carried out by supplying crafted JSON to the vulnerable parsing API, so a local or remote attacker with the ability to influence input can trigger the crash.

Generated by OpenCVE AI on July 28, 2026 at 15:24 UTC.

Remediation

No vendor fix or workaround currently provided.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade the SQLite library to a version that contains the fix for the use‑after‑free flaw.
  • If a library upgrade is not feasible, remove or disable the JSON extraction calls in the application so the vulnerable code path is not exercised.
  • Validate all JSON inputs rigorously before handing them to the parser to mitigate the risk of malformed data triggering the crash.

Description sqlite 3.41 is vulnerable to use after free in the JSON extraction function. After releasing JsonParse object memory via jsonParseFree(), the program still accesses internal member of the freed pointer, which can cause service crash and denial of service.
