Description

networking.c in Redis before 3.2.7 allows "Cross Protocol Scripting" because it lacks a check for POST and Host: strings, which are not valid in the Redis protocol (but commonly occur when an attack triggers an HTTP request to the Redis TCP port).

Solution(s)

  • redislabs-redis-upgrade-3_2_7

With Rapid7 live dashboards, I have a clear view of all the assets on my network, which ones can be exploited, and what I need to do in order to reduce the risk in my environment in real-time. No other tool gives us that kind of value and insight.
