RHSA-2026:43236
Vulnerability from csaf_redhat - Published: 2026-07-22 06:01 - Updated: 2026-08-16 21:36A flaw was found in Redis. An authenticated attacker, in an unusual configuration where they can execute the RESTORE command, could exploit a double free vulnerability. This occurs when a specially crafted RESTORE payload references the same NACK (pending entry) by multiple consumers, and both consumers are subsequently deleted via XGROUP DELCONSUMER. Successful exploitation of this flaw could lead to remote code execution.

A flaw was found in Redis. An adjacent unauthenticated attacker can exploit an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the Redis Cluster Bus message parser by sending a specially crafted PING message. This vulnerability, specifically within the getPingExtLength() function, occurs because extension length fields are not properly validated against the allocated buffer size. Successful exploitation can lead to denial of service or information disclosure.
