Affected Products:

An update that solves one vulnerability can now be installed.

## Description:

This update for sqlite3 fixes the following issues:

  * Update to 3.50.2:
  * Fix the concat_ws() SQL function so that it includes empty strings in the
    concatenation.
  * Avoid writing frames with no checksums into the wal file if a savepoint is
    rolled back after dirty pages have already been spilled into the wal file.
  * Fix the Bitvec object to avoid stack overflow when the database is within 60
    pages of its maximum size.
  * Fix a problem with UPDATEs on fts5 tables that contain BLOB values.
  * Fix an issue with transitive IS constraints on a RIGHT JOIN.
  * CVE-2025-6965: Fixed Integer Truncation in SQLite (bsc#1246597)
  * Ensure that sqlite3_setlk_timeout() holds the database mutex.

  * Update to 3.50 (3.50.1):

  * Improved handling and robust output of control characters
  * sqlite3_rsync no longer requires WAL mode and needs less bandwidth
  * Bug fixes and optimized JSON handling
  * Performance optimizations and developer visible fixes

  * Update to release 3.49.2:

  * Fix a bug in the NOT NULL optimization of version 3.40.0 that can lead to a
    memory error if abused.
  * Fix the count-of-view optimization so that it does not give an incorrect
    answer for a DISTINCT query.
  * Fix a possible incorrect answer that can result if a UNIQUE constraint of a
    table contains the PRIMARY KEY column and that UNIQUE constraint is used by
    an IN operator.
  * Fix obscure problems with the generate_series() extension function.
  * Incremental improvements to the configure/make.

  * Add subpackage for the lemon parser generator.
