OVERVIEW

        Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in IBM solidDB that
        could allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service or
        execute arbitrary code.[1,2,3,4]


IMPACT

        If an attacker can send data to the solidDB server, they may be
        able to trigger a flaw in the logging system to execute arbitrary
        code. A separate vulnerability could be triggered to crash the
        server.


MITIGATION

        At the time of writing no solution to this problem is available,
        however users of solidDB can restrict network access to the server
        to only trusted systems which may lessen the ability for remote
        attackers to leverage these vulnerabilities.
