Description

This security bulletin contains information about 7 secuirty vulnerabilities.


1) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-45145)

The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition between listen(2) and chmod(2) calls on startup. A local user can exploit the race and escalate privileges on the system.


2) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-24834)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on the target system.

The vulnerability exists due to a boundary error within the cjson and cmsgpack libraries. A remote attacker can trick the victim into using a specially crafted Lua script to trigger a heap-based buffer overflow and execute arbitrary code on the target system.

Successful exploitation of this vulnerability may result in complete compromise of vulnerable system.


3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-28856)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to insufficient validation of user-supplied input. A remote user can use the HINCRBYFLOAT command to create an invalid hash field that will crash Redis on access.


4) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-25155)

The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in the "SRANDMEMBER", "ZRANDMEMBER" and "HRANDFIELD" commands. A local user can pass specially crafted data to the application, trigger integer overflow and cause a denial of service condition on the target system.


5) Resource exhaustion (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-36021)

The vulnerability allows a remote user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to application does not properly control consumption of internal resources when matching commands (like SCAN or KEYS) with a specially crafted pattern. A remote user can trigger resource exhaustion and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


6) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2022-35977)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in SETRANGE and SORT/SORT_RO commands. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger an integer overflow and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.


7) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2023-22458)

The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.

The vulnerability exists due to integer overflow in HRANDFIELD and ZRANDMEMBER commands. A remote attacker can pass specially crafted input to the application, trigger an integer overflow and perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
