"The version of Tencent Linux installed on the remote TencentOS Server 3 host is prior to tested version. It is,
therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the TSSA-2025:0449 advisory.
Package updates are available for TencentOS Server 3 that fix the following vulnerabilities:
CVE-2025-21605:
Redis is an open source, in-memory database that persists on disk. In versions starting at 2.6 and prior
to 7.4.3, An unauthenticated client can cause unlimited growth of output buffers, until the server runs
out of memory or is killed. By default, the Redis configuration does not limit the output buffer of normal
clients (see client-output-buffer-limit). Therefore, the output buffer can grow unlimitedly over time. As
a result, the service is exhausted and the memory is unavailable. When password authentication is enabled
on the Redis server, but no password is provided, the client can still cause the output buffer to grow
from NOAUTH responses until the system will run out of memory. This issue has been patched in version
7.4.3. An additional workaround to mitigate this problem without patching the redis-server executable is
to block access to prevent unauthenticated users from connecting to Redis. This can be done in different
ways. Either using network access control tools like firewalls, iptables, security groups, etc, or
enabling TLS and requiring users to authenticate using client side certificates.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Tencent Linux security advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
