Comment 2 Summer Long 2016-08-12 00:26:49 EDT 
Fixed upstream in Redis 3.2.3     Released Tue Aug 02 10:55:24 CEST 2016

Redis-cli created the history file with insecure permissions, allowing reading from the file. This was actually a bug in linenoise which is now fixed. The applied fix is from Chris Lamb.
