[TLP:CLEAR] Redis fixes two vulnerabilities
Redis has released versions 8.8.1, 8.6.5, 8.4.5 and 8.2.8 containing fixes for two vulnerabilities. The first one is described below; the second one, which affects the RedisBloom/TDigest module and allows writing outside the bounds of allocated memory, has not yet been assigned a CVE identifier [1]. According to a public PoC [2], there is also a third vulnerability in RedisBloom/TopK, for which no fix has been released yet. In addition to updating to the highest fixed version for the deployed branch, given the absence of a fix for the third vulnerability, a temporary mitigation is also recommended: removing the RESTORE permission from accounts that do not strictly require it and restricting network access to Redis to trusted sources only; see the temporary fix procedure for the similar vulnerability CVE-2026-25243 [3][4].
An authenticated remote attacker with access to the RESTORE command can, under certain conditions, corrupt memory and potentially execute code using a specially crafted payload. The vulnerability arose from an incomplete fix of CVE-2026-25243 [5]. A PoC is available at [2].
The vulnerability is present in product:
- Redis; <6.2.23; >=7.0, <7.2.15; >=7.4, <7.4.10; >=8.0, <8.2.8; >=8.4, <8.4.5; >=8.6, <8.6.5;
CVSS: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H
More information:
- CVE-2026-66373 at cve.org, NVD
- CWE-415: Double Free at cwe.mitre.org
The vulnerability was publicly disclosed 24. 7. 2026.
