Language:

Synopsis

The remote Amazon Linux 2 host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of redis installed on the remote host is prior to 6.2.14-2. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2REDIS6-2024-010 advisory.

Denial-of-service due to unbounded pattern matching (CVE-2024-31228)

Lua library commands may be exploited by an authenticated user to achieve remote-code-execution (CVE-2024-31449)

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

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

Solution

Run 'yum update redis' to update your system.
