Package : redis CVE ID : CVE-2024-46981 CVE-2024-51741

Two security issues were discovered in Redis, a persistent key-value database, which could result in the execution of arbitrary code or denial of service.

For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in version 5:7.0.15-1~deb12u3.
