Redis: Authenticated users can execute LUA scripts as a different user
CVE-2025-46818 is fixed in 18 products on 1 platform, first by valkey-redis-compat 7.2.11+dfsg1-0ubuntu0.2, released October 3, 2025. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High.
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.
