    Hello, 
    Within the past month I've installed YUM on all of my AIX systems and used it to roll out SQLite 3.23.0. Everything was happy and working great. 
    Then Security got involved and have demanded that I update SQLite to version 3.26 or newer because of CVE-2018-20346 (SQLite Magellan Multiple Security Vulnerabilities).

     

    Is there an ETA for SQLite v3.26+ availability in the Linux Toolbox? 
    Thank you,

    Patrick Yancy

    This CVE affects only if FTS3 extension is enabled in SQLite.

    AIX Toolbox SQLite build don't have it enabled.So AIX Toolbox SQLite is not affected by this CVE.

     

    Anyway updating SQLite to latest version is on our priority list.

    One can expect the latest version in Feb end.
