Redis string pattern matching can be abused to achieve Denial of Service
Summary
Redis string pattern matching can be abused to achieve Denial of Service
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Redis is an in-memory database that persists on disk. Authenticated users can use string matching commands (like SCAN or KEYS) with a specially crafted pattern to trigger a denial-of-service attack on Redis, causing it to hang and consume 100% CPU time. The problem is fixed in Redis versions 6.0.18, 6.2.11, 7.0.9.
