It was discovered that redis, a
persistent key-value database, did not properly protect redis-cli history files:
they were created by default with world-readable permissions.
Users and systems administrators may want to proactively change
permissions on existing ~/rediscli_history files, instead of waiting
for the updated redis-cli to do so the next time it is run.
