Description Guilherme de Almeida Suckevicz 2026-08-17 17:04:13 UTC
Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

RedisBloom is a probabilistic data structures module for Redis. In all versions of RedisBloom before 2.8.20, the module does not properly validate serialized values processed through the Redis RESTORE command. An authenticated attacker with permission to execute RESTORE on a server with the RedisBloom module loaded can supply a crafted serialized payload that triggers invalid memory access and may lead to remote code execution. A workaround is to restrict access to the RESTORE command with ACL rules. This issue is fixed in version 2.8.20.

Comment 1 Jonathan Wakely 2026-08-17 18:04:04 UTC
The CVE does not affect Boost. The Boost code does not contain redis code and the installed packages do not contain it. Boost.Redis is a client library that implements the redis protocol, it is not affected by vulnerabilities in a redis server that it connects to.
