Redis 8.2.9 Security Fixes

Redis 8.2.9 addresses multiple critical security vulnerabilities including buffer overflow in CMSketch RDB loading, out-of-bounds access issues, use-after-free flaws in TLS and blocking clients, ACL key permission bypass in several commands, and Vector Sets memory safety issues. These fixes prevent potential heap corruption, remote code execution, and unauthorized data access.

Security fixes

  • (CVE-2026-62356) Miscalculated buffer size in CMSketch RDB loading may lead to heap OOB write
  • Out-of-bounds access in TopK heap cleanup path (MOD-15410)
  • Use-after-free in the TLS pending-data list when a command closes another pending connection
  • #15478 ACL key permission bypass in SORT, GEORADIUS/GEORADIUSBYMEMBER and XREAD/XREADGROUP: the keys validated by ACL could differ from the keys the command actually accesses
  • #14847 Out-of-bounds argv access during key extraction when checking ACL permissions of a KEYNUM keyspec command (e.g. EVAL) with wrong arity
  • A malicious RDB payload with an out-of-range SLOT_INFO slot id causes memory corruption during RDB loading, which may lead to Remote Code Execution
  • Vector Sets: missing node level validation when loading a vector set from RDB may lead to out-of-bounds access
  • Vector Sets: use-after-free when VREM mutates the HNSW graph while background VSIM threads are still running
  • Vector Sets: a negative hnsw_search() return was treated as a huge unsigned count, reading past the end of the result arrays
  • #15594 Use-after-free in the blocked-client list when reprocessing a command evicts another client blocked on the same key

Improvement8.12-m02-int

Improve test timeout diagnostics with crash reports and stack traces

When a test times out, the system now collects crash reports from Redis servers and stack traces from clients before terminating, providing better diagnostics for hung tests instead of silently killing them.

Security8.10.2

Security fixes in Redis 8.10.2

This release addresses critical security vulnerabilities including ACL permission bypasses in transactions, unauthenticated cluster bus access, and server crashes in TimeSeries, RedisSearch, and Vector Sets. The new cluster-bus-port-protected-mode option allows nodes to require TLS authentication for cluster bus communication.

Security8.8.3

Redis 8.8.3 Security and Stability Release

This release includes critical security fixes for transaction ACL bypasses, cluster bus authentication warnings, and crash prevention in TimeSeries and Vector Sets. A new cluster-bus-port-protected-mode option allows nodes to enforce authentication on the cluster bus port.
