DescriptionGitHub Advisory

RedisTimeSeries is a time-series module for Redis. In all versions before 1.12.14 of RedisTimeSeries, the module does not properly validate serialized values processed through the Redis RESTORE command. An authenticated attacker with permission to execute RESTORE on a server with the RedisTimeSeries module loaded can supply a crafted serialized payload that triggers invalid memory access and may lead to remote code execution. A workaround is to restrict access to the RESTORE command with ACL rules. This has been patched in version 1.12.14.

AnalysisAI

Remote code execution in RedisTimeSeries versions before 1.12.14 allows authenticated attackers with RESTORE command permissions to execute arbitrary code via crafted serialized payloads. The vulnerability stems from improper validation of data processed through Redis RESTORE command, enabling heap buffer overflow exploitation. Attackers with low-level privileges can achieve complete system compromise (CVSS 7.7, CVSS:4.0 High confidentiality/integrity/availability impact) through network-based attacks with high complexity. No public exploit code or active exploitation confirmed at time of analysis.

Technical ContextAI

RedisTimeSeries is a time-series data structure module for Redis that extends Redis with specialized commands for time-series operations. The vulnerability exists in the module's deserialization logic for the RESTORE command, which is used to restore Redis keys from serialized data. The root cause is a heap-based buffer overflow (CWE-122) occurring when the module processes maliciously crafted serialized payloads without proper bounds checking or input validation. When RedisTimeSeries deserializes data through RESTORE, it allocates heap memory based on payload metadata but fails to validate actual data size against allocated buffer size, allowing attackers to write beyond heap boundaries. This class of vulnerability is particularly dangerous in Redis modules because they execute within the Redis server process with full process privileges, and successful exploitation can bypass Redis's command sandboxing. The CVSS:4.0 vector indicates network-based attack (AV:N) with high attack complexity (AC:H), requiring low privileges (PR:L) and no user interaction (UI:N).

RemediationAI

Upgrade RedisTimeSeries module to version 1.12.14 or later, available at https://github.com/RedisTimeSeries/RedisTimeSeries/releases/tag/v1.12.14. For organizations unable to immediately upgrade, implement ACL-based access controls to restrict RESTORE command execution: use Redis ACL rules to deny RESTORE command to all non-administrative users via 'ACL SETUSER <username> -restore' for each user, or configure default user with '-restore' permission and explicitly grant only to trusted admin accounts. Note that restricting RESTORE may break legitimate backup/restore workflows, replication scenarios using RESTORE for key migration, or applications using RESTORE for data persistence - verify operational impact before deployment. For Redis 8+ deployments, migrate from standalone RedisTimeSeries module to built-in time-series support, which eliminates module-specific deserialization vulnerabilities. Apply defense-in-depth: enable Redis authentication (requirepass), bind Redis to localhost or private networks only, enable TLS encryption for Redis connections, and implement network segmentation to limit Redis server exposure. Security fix details confirmed in official release notes at provided GitHub URL.
