Doc Text:
A flaw was found in Valkey, a distributed key-value database. A remote attacker could exploit a use-after-free vulnerability in the RESTORE command. This occurs when a malformed data stream is processed during stream deserialization, causing a shared resource to be improperly managed. If successfully exploited, this flaw could lead to remote code execution.

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-08-18 14:35:15 UTC
Valkey is a distributed key-value database. Prior to 7.2.14, 8.0.10, 8.1.9, 9.0.5, and 9.1.1, Valkey's RESTORE command accepts a malformed RDB stream payload that assigns one Pending Entry List NACK to multiple consumers during stream consumer-group deserialization, causing a use-after-free when one consumer is deleted while another still references the shared NACK and potentially allowing remote code execution. This issue is fixed in versions 7.2.14, 8.0.10, 8.1.9, 9.0.5, and 9.1.1.
