Vulnerability description

Redis is affected by a Remote Code Execution, vulnerability located in the Redis caching service. The root cause of this vulnerability consists in an unexpected sandbox escape on Debian systems because of the dynamically load of the Lua interpreter. Therefore, an unauthenticated remote attacker can connect to the Redis service, evaluate a library load and execute shell commands.

Exploit capabilities

Sniper can gain unauthenticated Remote Code Execution on the target system and extract multiple artefacts as evidence.

Risk description

The risk exists that a remote unauthenticated attacker can fully compromise the server in order to steal confidential information, install ransomware or pivot to the internal network.

Recommendation

Upgrade the Redis service to a version equal to or higher than 5:5.0.14-1+deb10u2 for the oldstable version, or 5:5.0.14-1+deb10u2 for the stable distribution.
