Redis is an open source, in-memory database that persists on disk. Versions8.2.1 and below allow an authenticated user to use a specially crafted Luascript to manipulate different LUA objects and potentially run their owncode in the context of another user. The problem exists in all versions ofRedis with LUA scripting. This issue is fixed in version 8.2.2. Aworkaround to mitigate the problem without patching the redis-serverexecutable is to prevent users from executing LUA scripts. This can be doneusing ACL to block a script by restricting both the EVAL and FUNCTIONcommand families.
