AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Remotely reachable and low-complexity, but submitting SQL realistically needs a query session, so PR:L; impact is availability-only (A:H), no confidentiality or integrity effect.

An issue in the time_t_to_dt component of openlink virtuoso-opensource v7.2.11 allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via crafted SQL statements.
AnalysisAI
Denial of service in OpenLink Virtuoso Open Source Edition 7.2.11 lets attackers crash the database server by submitting crafted SQL statements that reach the time_t_to_dt date/time conversion routine. The defect is availability-only (no data exposure or integrity loss) and is tracked publicly via GitHub issue #1233; it carries a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.5 but a low EPSS of 0.15% (4th percentile), and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no evidence of active exploitation.
Technical ContextAI
Virtuoso is a hybrid relational/RDF database and middleware server from OpenLink Software, commonly used as a SPARQL triplestore and SQL engine. The fault lies in the internal time_t_to_dt component, which converts Unix time_t values into Virtuoso's internal datetime representation; a malformed or out-of-range value supplied through SQL appears to drive the function into an error state that terminates the process. The advisory is tagged CWE-89 (SQL Injection), but the described behavior is a server crash (denial of service) rather than query manipulation or injection of attacker SQL - the CWE assignment likely reflects the SQL delivery vector rather than the true root cause, which is closer to improper input validation / unhandled exceptional condition in datetime handling.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - the only reference is upstream GitHub issue https://github.com/openlink/virtuoso-opensource/issues/1233, which tracks the bug but does not point to a tagged fixed release; monitor that issue and OpenLink's release notes for a patched build above 7.2.11 and upgrade once available. As compensating controls, restrict who can submit arbitrary SQL: do not expose the Virtuoso SQL/SPARQL endpoints directly to untrusted networks, place them behind a firewall or reverse proxy with allowlisting, and require authentication on all query interfaces (side effect: may break anonymous SPARQL consumers). Limit query privileges for application accounts and consider rate-limiting or query filtering at a proxy to blunt repeated crash attempts (side effect: added latency and operational complexity), and ensure process supervision/auto-restart is configured to reduce downtime from a crash.
