Detection & IOCsextracted from sources · hover to see the quote
- →Vulnerability resides in the cmsgpack library (lua_cmsgpack.c) within the Lua subsystem of Redis — monitor for exploitation attempts targeting Redis Lua script execution paths ↗
- →Patch commits for CVE-2018-11218 can be used to derive pre-patch vs. post-patch behavioral differences for detection rule development ↗
- →Related exploitation technique (Redis replication abuse for code execution) uses Redis master-slave replication to deliver a malicious extension — monitor for unexpected SLAVEOF or REPLICAOF commands and unusual .so module loads on Redis instances ↗
- ·Only Redis versions before 3.2.12, 4.x before 4.0.10, and 5.x before 5.0 RC2 are affected; patched versions are not vulnerable ↗
- ·Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 ships a non-affected version of Redis; RHEL OpenStack Platform packages are marked 'Will not fix' — assess exposure accordingly ↗
- ·Debian fixed the vulnerability in package version 5:4.0.10-1 across all supported releases (bookworm, bullseye, forky, sid, trixie) ↗
