What is CVE-2017-6369?

A security flaw in the UDF subsystem of the Firebird Database Server allows remote authenticated users to execute arbitrary code. This vulnerability arises from insufficient checks before executing commands through a specific 'system' entrypoint in fbudf.so. As a result, attackers with valid credentials can potentially exploit this loophole to execute malicious code, posing significant risks to the integrity and security of database systems running affected versions.
