"The Unity Linux 20 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
UTSA-2026-017631 advisory.
Redis is an open-source, in-memory database that persists on disk. In affected versions of Redis an
integer overflow bug in 32-bit Redis version 4.0 or newer could be exploited to corrupt the heap and
potentially result with remote code execution. Redis 4.0 or newer uses a configurable limit for the
maximum supported bulk input size. By default, it is 512MB which is a safe value for all platforms. If the
limit is significantly increased, receiving a large request from a client may trigger several integer
overflow scenarios, which would result with buffer overflow and heap corruption. We believe this could in
certain conditions be exploited for remote code execution. By default, authenticated Redis users have
access to all configuration parameters and can therefore use the CONFIG SET proto-max-bulk-len to
change the safe default, making the system vulnerable. **This problem only affects 32-bit Redis (on a
32-bit system, or as a 32-bit executable running on a 64-bit system).** The problem is fixed in version
6.2, and the fix is back ported to 6.0.11 and 5.0.11. Make sure you use one of these versions if you are
running 32-bit Redis. An additional workaround to mitigate the problem without patching the redis-server
executable is to prevent clients from directly executing `CONFIG SET`: Using Redis 6.0 or newer, ACL
configuration can be used to block the command. Using older versions, the `rename-command` configuration
directive can be used to rename the command to a random string unknown to users, rendering it
inaccessible. Please note that this workaround may have an additional impact on users or operational
systems that expect `CONFIG SET` to behave in certain ways.
Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity 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.");
