Authenticated Redis-module access gives PR:L and AV:N with low complexity; the description supports only a DoS crash, so C:N/I:N/A:H rather than the vendor's unsubstantiated C:H/I:H.

DescriptionCVE.org

FalkorDB (Redis module) v4.20.1 to v4.20.4 was discovered to contain a buffer overflow in the _Decode_GrB_Matrix function (/v19/decode_matrix.c). This vulnerability allows attackers to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a crafted input.

AnalysisAI

A crafted, attacker-controlled serialized graph payload processed by FalkorDB 4.20.1 through 4.20.4 overflows a buffer in the GraphBLAS matrix decoder (_Decode_GrB_Matrix in /v19/decode_matrix.c), crashing the Redis module process and denying service to the instance. Reaching the flaw requires an authenticated network connection to the FalkorDB/Redis port (CVSS PR:L) plus the ability to submit matrix data into the decode/restore path; no user interaction is needed, and the confirmed outcome is a process-crash DoS rather than code execution or data disclosure. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires authenticated network access to a FalkorDB instance (Redis module) running one of versions v4.20.1 through v4.20.4, plus the ability to submit attacker-controlled serialized graph/matrix data that reaches the _Decode_GrB_Matrix deserialization routine in /v19/decode_matrix.c (e.g. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment Signals conflict sharply and must be reconciled before prioritization. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis, and no fixed version is named in the sole reference (https://github.com/FalkorDB/FalkorDB/issues/2399) - track that issue for a patched release, and do not assume any version above v4.20.4 is fixed until the maintainers confirm it. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all FalkorDB instances and confirm whether any are running 4.20.1, 4.20.2, 4.20.3, or 4.20.4; restrict network access to FalkorDB/Redis ports to trusted hosts only, enforce strong authentication and least-privilege access, and enable process-crash/restart monitoring with alerting. …
