Server crash via merge-table column rollback
Published Jan 14, 2025 · Updated Jan 15, 2025
Denial of service in MonetDB Server 11.49.1 allows remote attackers to crash mserver5 via crafted SQL statements. The published proof of concept creates a value-partitioned merge table, drops a column in a transaction, and causes rollback to enter gc_col before mserver5 terminates. The demonstrated sequence uses an authenticated SQL session, and the reported consequence is limited to service interruption by process crash.
