Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2025-32023

high Nessus Plugin ID 247381

Language:

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

 - Redis is an open source, in-memory database that persists on disk. From 2.8 to before 8.0.3, 7.4.5, 7.2.10, and 6.2.19, an authenticated user may use a specially crafted string to trigger a stack/heap out of bounds write on hyperloglog operations, potentially leading to remote code execution. The bug likely affects all Redis versions with hyperloglog operations implemented. This vulnerability is fixed in 8.0.3, 7.4.5, 7.2.10, and 6.2.19. An additional workaround to mitigate the problem without patching the redis- server executable is to prevent users from executing hyperloglog operations. This can be done using ACL to restrict HLL commands. (CVE-2025-32023)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.

Solution

There is no known solution at this time.
