QID 239727: Red Hat Update for rh-redis5-redis (RHSA-2021:3947)

redis is an advanced key-value store.
It is often referred to as a data-structure server since keys can contain strings, hashes, lists, sets, and sorted sets.
For performance, redis works with an in-memory data set.
You can persist it either by dumping the data set to disk every once in a while, or by appending each command to a log.

Security Fix(es):
  • redis: lua scripts can overflow the heap-based lua stack (cve-2021-32626)
  • redis: integer overflow issue with streams (cve-2021-32627)
  • redis: integer overflow bug in the ziplist data structure (cve-2021-32628)
  • redis: denial of service via redis standard protocol (resp) request (cve-2021-32675)
  • redis: integer overflow issue with intsets (cve-2021-32687)
  • redis: integer overflow issue with strings (cve-2021-41099)
