sqlite 3.41 is vulnerable to use after free in the JSON extraction function. After releasing JsonParse object memory via jsonParseFree(), the program still accesses internal member of the freed pointer, which can cause service crash and denial of service.

Weakness

The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory “belongs” to the code that operates on the new pointer.
