Alpine: multiple redis packages: security update to 7.2.1-r0 (deprecated)

low Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 401393

Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

 - Redis is an in-memory database that persists on disk. On startup, Redis begins listening on a Unix socket
 before adjusting its permissions to the user-provided configuration. If a permissive umask(2) is used,
 this creates a race condition that enables, during a short period of time, another process to establish an
 otherwise unauthorized connection. This problem has existed since Redis 2.6.0-RC1. This issue has been
 addressed in Redis versions 7.2.2, 7.0.14 and 6.2.14. Users are advised to upgrade. For users unable to
 upgrade, it is possible to work around the problem by disabling Unix sockets, starting Redis with a
 restrictive umask, or storing the Unix socket file in a protected directory. (CVE-2023-45145)
