Summary

A use-after-free vulnerability in Redis-server versions 7.2.0 through 8.6.3 occurs when an error return from `processCommandAndResetClient` is not handled during blocked command re-execution. An authenticated attacker can exploit this to achieve remote code execution.

Risk Assessment

The risk for the organization includes potential server takeover by an authenticated attacker, leading to data confidentiality, integrity, and availability breaches.

Recommendation

Immediately upgrade Redis-server to version 8.6.3 or later, which contains the fix for this vulnerability.

Original NVD description (English source)

Redis is an in-memory data structure store. In redis-server from 7.2.0 until 8.6.3, the unblock client flow does not handle an error return from `processCommandAndResetClient` when re-executing a blocked command. If a blocked client is evicted during this flow, an authenticated attacker can trigger a use-after-free that may lead to remote code execution. This has been patched in version 8.6.3.
