Redis is an in-memory database that persists on disk. Starting in version 7.0.8 and prior to version 7.0.10, authenticated users can use the MSETNX command to trigger a runtime assertion and termination of the Redis server process. The problem is fixed in Redis version 7.0.10.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-202408-05 (Redis: Multiple Vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Redis. Please review the CVE identifiers referenced below     for details.

An update of the redis package has been released.

The remote SUSE Linux SLES15 / SLES_SAP15 / openSUSE 15 host has a package installed that is affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the SUSE-SU-2023:2925-1 advisory.

  - Redis is an in-memory database that persists on disk. A specially crafted Lua script executing in Redis     can trigger a heap overflow in the cjson library, and result with heap corruption and potentially remote     code execution. The problem exists in all versions of Redis with Lua scripting support, starting from 2.6,     and affects only authenticated and authorized users. The problem is fixed in versions 7.0.12, 6.2.13, and     6.0.20. (CVE-2022-24834)

  - Redis is an in-memory database that persists on disk. Authenticated users can use string matching commands     (like `SCAN` or `KEYS`) with a specially crafted pattern to trigger a denial-of-service attack on Redis,     causing it to hang and consume 100% CPU time. The problem is fixed in Redis versions 6.0.18, 6.2.11,     7.0.9. (CVE-2022-36021)

  - Redis is an in-memory database that persists on disk. Authenticated users issuing specially crafted     `SRANDMEMBER`, `ZRANDMEMBER`, and `HRANDFIELD` commands can trigger an integer overflow, resulting in a     runtime assertion and termination of the Redis server process. This problem affects all Redis versions.
    Patches were released in Redis version(s) 6.0.18, 6.2.11 and 7.0.9. (CVE-2023-25155)

  - Redis is an in-memory database that persists on disk. Starting in version 7.0.8 and prior to version     7.0.10, authenticated users can use the MSETNX command to trigger a runtime assertion and termination of     the Redis server process. The problem is fixed in Redis version 7.0.10. (CVE-2023-28425)

  - Redis is an open source, in-memory database that persists on disk. Authenticated users can use the     `HINCRBYFLOAT` command to create an invalid hash field that will crash Redis on access in affected     versions. This issue has been addressed in in versions 7.0.11, 6.2.12, and 6.0.19. Users are advised to     upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this issue. (CVE-2023-28856)

  - Redis is an in-memory database that persists on disk. In Redit 7.0 prior to 7.0.12, extracting key names     from a command and a list of arguments may, in some cases, trigger a heap overflow and result in reading     random heap memory, heap corruption and potentially remote code execution. Several scenarios that may lead     to authenticated users executing a specially crafted `COMMAND GETKEYS` or `COMMAND GETKEYSANDFLAGS`and     authenticated users who were set with ACL rules that match key names, executing a specially crafted     command that refers to a variadic list of key names. The vulnerability is patched in Redis 7.0.12.
    (CVE-2023-36824)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2023-2023-164 advisory.
