Exploitation needs EVAL/scripting access, which is typically authenticated in real deployments, so PR:L rather than PR:N; network vector and low complexity, memory corruption yields high C/I/A within the process (S:U).
Primary rating from Vendor (CNA).

Memory corruption in Apache Kvrocks' embedded Lua scripting engine allows a client able to run EVAL/EVALSHA commands to trigger a stack buffer overflow in the bit.tohex() function, potentially crashing the server or corrupting process memory toward code execution. Kvrocks is a Redis-protocol-compatible distributed key-value store, and this flaw was disclosed via the oss-security mailing list on 2026-06-25 alongside three other Kvrocks issues. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires the attacker to be able to execute Lua scripts on the target via the EVAL/EVALSHA command path that reaches bit.tohex(); this is the concrete prerequisite, mirroring the sibling CVE-2026-46751 which is scoped to 'a user who can run EVAL.' What limits exploitation: in deployments where requirepass/authentication is configured, the attacker must first hold valid credentials with scripting permission, so the official PR:N (unauthenticated) rating only holds for instances left without a password or otherwise exposing EVAL to anonymous clients. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The published CVSS 4.0 score is 10.0 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N with full High vulnerable- and subsequent-system impact), which treats the issue as remotely exploitable by an unauthenticated attacker with maximum impact. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker who can reach the Kvrocks port and execute scripts - for example via an exposed instance with no password, or a low-privileged application tenant - sends an EVAL command containing a crafted call to bit.tohex(). The malformed argument overflows the fixed-size buffer, crashing the Kvrocks process (denial of service) and potentially corrupting memory in a way that could be steered toward code execution. … |
| Remediation | No vendor-released patch version is identified in the available data; the primary action is to upgrade to the fixed Apache Kvrocks release named in the official advisory at https://lists.apache.org/thread/11sr3bkkhkk0q01odgw6ddsj7fzo31pt (verify the exact patched version there before deploying). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
