Discussion

Hughes Technologies Mini SQL Denial of Service Vulnerability

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.

Earlier versions of Mini SQL may share this vulnerability.
