The version of IBM solidDB database server installed on the remote host is older than 6.30.0.37 (6.3 Fix Pack 3 / 6.3.37), and hence is affected by a denial of service vulnerability. By sending a specially crafted packet with a negative error code other than -1, it may be possible for an attacker to crash the remote database.
