Arch Linux Security Advisory ASA-202106-12
=========================================
Severity: High
Date    : 2021-06-01
CVE-ID  : CVE-2021-32625
Package : redis
Type    : arbitrary code execution
Remote  : Yes
Link    : https://security.archlinux.org/AVG-2022

Summary
======
The package redis before version 6.2.4-1 is vulnerable to arbitrary
code execution.

Resolution
=========
Upgrade to 6.2.4-1.

# pacman -Syu "redis>=6.2.4-1"

The problem has been fixed upstream in version 6.2.4.

Workaround
=========
A workaround to mitigate the problem is to use an ACL configuration to
prevent clients from using the STRALGO LCS command.

On systems running Redis version 6.2.3, it is sufficient to make sure
that the proto-max-bulk-len config parameter is smaller than 2GB
(default is 512MB).

Description
==========
An integer overflow bug in Redis versions 6.0 up to 6.2.3 can be
exploited using the STRALGO LCS command to corrupt the heap and
potentially result in remote code execution. This is a result of an
incomplete fix of CVE-2021-29477.

Impact
=====
A remote attacker could execute arbitrary code on the database server
through a crafted STRALGO LCS command.
