    ## Valkey 8.1.9  -  Released Tue 21 July 2026

    Upgrade urgency SECURITY: This release includes security fixes we recommend you apply as soon as possible.

    ### Security Fixes

    * **CVE-2026-56684**: Fix a use-after-free in TLS connection handling that could allow an authenticated
    client to achieve remote code execution using CLIENT KILL (#4234)
    * **CVE-2026-63639**: Reject corrupt stream RDB files containing a shared NACK across consumers, which
    could allow remote code execution. Reported by @z0v3r1n and @lifip. (#4073)

    ### Bug Fixes

    * Fix clients being left on the wrong database after module keyspace notifications from commands like
    `MOVE` and `COPY` by @enjoy-binbin (#4024)
    * Fix an I/O thread job queue memory-ordering race that could trigger an assertion crash on ARM/aarch64 by
    @jjuleslasarte (#3878)
    * Reject zipmap `RESTORE` payloads with overflowing length fields that could cause out-of-bounds access on
    32-bit builds by @madolson (#3920)
    * Reject NAN scores when loading listpack/ziplist-encoded sorted sets, preventing a crash from crafted
    `RESTORE` payloads by @madolson (#3921)
    * Fix a startup crash when generating `INFO` output on 32-bit systems where `time_t` is 64-bit (e.g.
    Alpine time64) by @chenshi5012 (#3787)
    * Fix `COMMAND INFO` in RESP3 to reply with an empty Array instead of a Set for commands without
    subcommands by @rickrams (#3939)
    * Reject invalid characters in cluster AUX fields and `cluster-announce-ip` to prevent `nodes.conf`
    corruption and injection by @eifrah-aws (#3848)
    * Fix `lua-enable-insecure-api` having no effect when enabled at startup via config file or command line
    by @enjoy-binbin (#3548)
    * Increase the maximum process title length from 255 to 1024 characters to avoid truncation with long
    installation paths by @pkhartsk (#3843)
