Fedora 40 valkey 8.0.2 critical: remote code execution and DoS threats

Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2025-9eccdb2c3e 2025-01-17 01:35:26.873174+00:00 Name : valkey Product : Fedora 40 Version : 8.0.2 Release : 1.fc40 URL : https://valkey.io Summary : A persistent key-value database Description : Valkey 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. You can run atomic operations on these types, like appending to a string; incrementing the value in a hash; pushing to a list; computing set intersection, union and difference; or getting the member with highest ranking in a sorted set. In order to achieve its outstanding performance, Valkey works with an in-memory dataset. Depending on your use case, you can persist it either by dumping the dataset to disk every once in a while, or by appending each command to a log. Valkey also supports trivial-to-setup master-slave replication, with very fast non-blocking first synchronization, auto-reconnection on net split and so forth. Other features include Transactions, Pub/Sub, Lua scripting, Keys with a limited time-to-live, and configuration settings to make Valkey behave like a cache. You can use Valkey from most programming languages also.
