Title: Hughes Technologies Mini SQL Denial of Service Vulnerability
Severity: MODERATE
Description:
Mini SQL is a lightweight database system. It was designed to provide rapid access to relatively small and simple data sets with minimal overhead and hardware requirements.
A vulnerability exists in Mini SQL 2.0. A user able to connect to the database and create tables may construct a table with an extremely large char array for one of the columns. When a select statement is issued against this table, the database process will crash. This results in a denial of service condition.
The service must be restarted to regain normal functionality.
Earlier versions of Mini SQL may share this vulnerability.
Affected Products:
- Hughes Technologies Mini SQL (mSQL) 2.0.10
- Hughes Technologies Mini SQL (mSQL) 2.0.11
- Hughes Technologies Mini SQL (mSQL) 2.0.12
