Redis project reports : Vulnerability in the STRALGO LCS command An integer overflow bug in Redis version 6.0 or newer could be exploited using the STRALGO LCS command to corrupt the heap and potentially result with remote code execution. Vulnerability in the COPY command for large intsets An integer overflow bug in Redis 6.2 could be exploited to corrupt the heap and potentially result with remote code execution. The vulnerability involves changing the default set-max-intset-entries configuration value, creating a large set key that consists of integer values and using the COPY command to duplicate it. The integer overflow bug exists in all versions of Redis starting with 2.6, where it could result with a corrupted RDB or DUMP payload, but not exploited through COPY (which did not exist before 6.2).

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RHSA-2021:2034 advisory.

    Redis is an advanced key-value store. It is often referred to as a data-structure server since keys can     contain strings, hashes, lists, sets, and sorted sets. For performance, Redis works with an in-memory data     set. You can persist it either by dumping the data set to disk every once in a while, or by appending each     command to a log.

    Security Fix(es):

    * redis: Integer overflow via STRALGO LCS command (CVE-2021-29477)

The remote Rocky Linux 8 host has packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the RLSA-2021:2034 advisory.

  - Redis is an open source (BSD licensed), in-memory data structure store, used as a database, cache, and     message broker. An integer overflow bug in Redis version 6.0 or newer could be exploited using the     `STRALGO LCS` command to corrupt the heap and potentially result with remote code execution. The problem     is fixed in version 6.2.3 and 6.0.13. An additional workaround to mitigate the problem without patching     the redis-server executable is to use ACL configuration to prevent clients from using the `STRALGO LCS`     command. (CVE-2021-29477)

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

This update for redis fixes the following issues :

redis 6.0.13

  - CVE-2021-29477: Integer overflow in STRALGO LCS command     (boo#1185729)

  - CVE-2021-29478: Integer overflow in COPY command for     large intsets (boo#1185730)

  - Cluster: Skip unnecessary check which may prevent     failure detection

  - Fix performance regression in BRPOP on Redis 6.0

  - Fix edge-case when a module client is unblocked

redis 6.0.12 :

  - Fix compilation error on non-glibc systems if jemalloc     is not used

redis 6.0.11 :

  - CVE-2021-21309: Avoid 32-bit overflows when     proto-max-bulk-len is set high (boo#1182657)

  - Fix handling of threaded IO and CLIENT PAUSE (failover),     could lead to data loss or a crash

  - Fix the selection of a random element from large hash     tables

  - Fix broken protocol in client tracking     tracking-redir-broken message

  - XINFO able to access expired keys on a replica

  - Fix broken protocol in redis-benchmark when used with -a     or --dbnum 

  - Avoid assertions (on older kernels) when testing arm64     CoW bug

  - CONFIG REWRITE should honor umask settings

  - Fix firstkey,lastkey,step in COMMAND command for some     commands

  - RM_ZsetRem: Delete key if empty, the bug could leave     empty zset keys 

redis 6.0.10 :

Command behavior changes :

  - SWAPDB invalidates WATCHed keys (#8239)

  - SORT command behaves differently when used on a writable     replica (#8283)

  - EXISTS should not alter LRU (#8016) In Redis 5.0 and 6.0     it would have touched the LRU/LFU of the key.

  - OBJECT should not reveal logically expired keys (#8016)     Will now behave the same TYPE or any other non-DEBUG     command.

  - GEORADIUS[BYMEMBER] can fail with -OOM if Redis is over     the memory limit (#8107)

Other behavior changes :

  - Sentinel: Fix missing updates to the config file after     SENTINEL SET command (#8229)

  - CONFIG REWRITE is atomic and safer, but requires write     access to the config file's folder (#7824, #8051) This     change was already present in 6.0.9, but was missing     from the release notes.

Bug fixes with compatibility implications (bugs introduced in Redis 6.0) :

  - Fix RDB CRC64 checksum on big-endian systems (#8270) If     you're using big-endian please consider the     compatibility implications with RESTORE, replication and     persistence.

  - Fix wrong order of key/value in Lua's map response     (#8266) If your scripts use redis.setresp() or return a     map (new in Redis 6.0), please consider the     implications.

Bug fixes :

  - Fix an issue where a forked process deletes the parent's     pidfile (#8231)

  - Fix crashes when enabling io-threads-do-reads (#8230)

  - Fix a crash in redis-cli after executing cluster backup     (#8267)

  - Handle output buffer limits for module blocked clients     (#8141) Could result in a module sending reply to a     blocked client to go beyond the limit.

  - Fix setproctitle related crashes. (#8150, #8088) Caused     various crashes on startup, mainly on Apple M1 chips or     under instrumentation.

  - Backup/restore cluster mode keys to slots map for     repl-diskless-load=swapdb (#8108) In cluster mode with     repl-diskless-load, when loading failed, slot map     wouldn't have been restored.

  - Fix oom-score-adj-values range, and bug when used in     config file (#8046) Enabling setting this in the config     file in a line after enabling it, would have been buggy.

  - Reset average ttl when empty databases (#8106) Just     causing misleading metric in INFO

  - Disable rehash when Redis has child process (#8007) This     could have caused excessive CoW during BGSAVE,     replication or AOFRW.

  - Further improved ACL algorithm for picking categories     (#7966) Output of ACL GETUSER is now more similar to the     one provided by ACL SETUSER.

  - Fix bug with module GIL being released prematurely     (#8061) Could in theory (and rarely) cause     multi-threaded modules to corrupt memory.

  - Reduce effect of client tracking causing feedback loop     in key eviction (#8100)

  - Fix cluster access to unaligned memory (SIGBUS on old     ARM) (#7958)

  - Fix saving of strings larger than 2GB into RDB files     (#8306)

Additional improvements :

  - Avoid wasteful transient memory allocation in certain     cases (#8286, #5954)

Platform / toolchain support related improvements :

  - Fix crash log registers output on ARM. (#8020)

  - Add a check for an ARM64 Linux kernel bug (#8224) Due to     the potential severity of this issue, Redis will print     log warning on startup.

  - Raspberry build fix. (#8095)

New configuration options :

  - oom-score-adj-values config can now take absolute values     (besides relative ones) (#8046)

Module related fixes :

  - Moved RMAPI_FUNC_SUPPORTED so that it's usable (#8037)

  - Improve timer accuracy (#7987)

  - Allow '\0' inside of result of RM_CreateStringPrintf     (#6260)

redis 6.0.9 :

  - potential heap overflow when using a heap allocator     other than jemalloc or glibc's malloc. Does not affect     the openSUSE package - boo#1178205

An update of the redis package has been released.

The version of redis installed on the remote host is prior to 6.2.4-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2REDIS6-2023-008 advisory.

    Redis is an open source (BSD licensed), in-memory data structure store, used as a database, cache, and     message broker. An integer overflow bug in Redis version 6.0 or newer could be exploited using the     `STRALGO LCS` command to corrupt the heap and potentially result with remote code execution. The problem     is fixed in version 6.2.3 and 6.0.13. An additional workaround to mitigate the problem without patching     the redis-server executable is to use ACL configuration to prevent clients from using the `STRALGO LCS`     command.

    Redis is an open source (BSD licensed), in-memory data structure store, used as a database, cache, and     message broker. An integer overflow bug in Redis version 6.0 or newer, could be exploited using the     STRALGO LCS command to corrupt the heap and potentially result with remote code execution. This is a     result of an incomplete fix by CVE-2021-29477. The problem is fixed in version 6.2.4 and 6.0.14. An     additional workaround to mitigate the problem without patching the redis-server executable is to use ACL     configuration to prevent clients from using the STRALGO LCS command. On 64 bit systems which have the     fixes of CVE-2021-29477 (6.2.3 or 6.0.13), it is sufficient to make sure that the proto-max-bulk-len     config parameter is smaller than 2GB (default is 512MB). (CVE-2021-32625)
