Vulnerability from csaf_redhat - Published: 2016-02-01 21:03 - Updated: 2025-11-21 17:54
Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: redis security advisory
Severity
Moderate
Notes
Topic: Updated redis packages that fix a security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 7.0 Operational Tools. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having Moderate security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section.
Details: Redis is an advanced key-value store. It is often referred to as a data structure server because keys can contain strings, hashes, lists, sets, or sorted sets. An integer-wraparound flaw leading to a stack-based overflow was found in Redis. A user with access to run Lua code in a Redis session could possibly use this flaw to crash the server (denial of service) or gain code execution outside of the Lua sandbox. (CVE-2015-8080) All users of redis are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which correct this issue.
