Debian 10: DLA-3431-1 Critical: Sqlite Denial Of Service

sqlite improperly implemented the temporary directory search algorithm,
which might allow local users to obtain sensitive information, cause a
denial of service (application crash), or have unspecified other impact
by leveraging use of the current working directory for temporary files.

CVE-2018-8740

Databases whose schema is corrupted using a CREATE TABLE AS statement
could cause a NULL pointer dereference,


For Debian 10 buster, these problems have been fixed in version
2.8.17-15+deb10u1.

We recommend that you upgrade your sqlite packages.
