"The version of redis installed on the remote host is prior to 6.2.4-1. It is, therefore, affected by multiple
vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2REDIS6-2023-008 advisory.

  - Redis is an open source (BSD licensed), in-memory data structure store, used as a database, cache, and
    message broker. An integer overflow bug in Redis version 6.0 or newer could be exploited using the
    `STRALGO LCS` command to corrupt the heap and potentially result with remote code execution. The problem
    is fixed in version 6.2.3 and 6.0.13. An additional workaround to mitigate the problem without patching
    the redis-server executable is to use ACL configuration to prevent clients from using the `STRALGO LCS`
    command. (CVE-2021-29477)

  - Redis is an open source (BSD licensed), in-memory data structure store, used as a database, cache, and
    message broker. An integer overflow bug in Redis version 6.0 or newer, could be exploited using the
    STRALGO LCS command to corrupt the heap and potentially result with remote code execution. This is a
    result of an incomplete fix by CVE-2021-29477. The problem is fixed in version 6.2.4 and 6.0.14. An
    additional workaround to mitigate the problem without patching the redis-server executable is to use ACL
    configuration to prevent clients from using the STRALGO LCS command. On 64 bit systems which have the
    fixes of CVE-2021-29477 (6.2.3 or 6.0.13), it is sufficient to make sure that the proto-max-bulk-len
    config parameter is smaller than 2GB (default is 512MB). (CVE-2021-32625)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
