Redis is an open source, in-memory database that persists on disk. Anauthenticated user may use a specially crafted Lua script to manipulate thegarbage collector and potentially lead to remote code execution. Theproblem is fixed in 7.4.2, 7.2.7, and 6.2.17. An additional workaround tomitigate the problem without patching the redis-server executable is toprevent users from executing Lua scripts. This can be done using ACL torestrict EVAL and EVALSHA commands.
