CVE-2022-35737
Description
An array-bounds overflow vulnerability was discovered in SQLite. The vulnerability occurs when handling an overly large input passed as a string argument to some of the C-language APIs provided by SQLite. This flaw allows a remote attacker to pass specially crafted large input to the application and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).

Red Hat CVSS v3 Score Explanation
A:H, because the bug only comes up when very long string inputs (greater than 2 billion bytes in length) are provided as arguments to a few specific C-language interfaces, and even then only under special circumstances.
