A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 26 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponised: Public exploit code exists in Metasploit or Exploit-DB, or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

What to do

Upgrade the Red Hat redhat/redis package to 7.0.12.

AI-suggested

Red Hat has released fixed Redis packages at version 7.0.12 for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 and Extended Update Support releases. Users should apply these official updates promptly to remediate the vulnerabilities. Detailed update instructions are available from Red Hat's advisory and knowledge base articles. No alternative mitigations or workarounds are indicated. Patch status is confirmed as available and official.

Description

Redis is an advanced key-value store. It is often referred to as a data-structure server since keys can contain strings, hashes, lists, sets, and sorted sets. For performance, Redis works with an in-memory data set. You can persist it either by dumping the data set to disk every once in a while, or by appending each command to a log. Security Fix(es): * redis: Redis Unauthenticated Denial of Service (CVE-2025-48367) * redis: Redis Hyperloglog Out-of-Bounds Write Vulnerability (CVE-2025-32023) For more details about the security issue(s), including the impact, a CVSS score, acknowledgments, and other related information, refer to the CVE page(s) listed in the References section.

Impact

Successful exploitation of CVE-2025-48367 can cause denial of service without authentication, impacting availability of Redis services. CVE-2025-32023 may allow memory corruption via an out-of-bounds write in the Hyperloglog feature, potentially leading to application instability or crashes. Both vulnerabilities affect Redis deployments on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 and related Extended Update Support versions prior to 7.0.12. No reports of active exploitation are known.

Summary

Two security issues were identified in Redis: an unauthenticated denial of service vulnerability (CVE-2025-48367) and a Hyperloglog out-of-bounds write vulnerability (CVE-2025-32023). Both vulnerabilities affect Redis versions before 7.0.12 as packaged by Red Hat for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 and its Extended Update Support releases. The denial of service vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to disrupt Redis service availability. The out-of-bounds write vulnerability could lead to memory corruption. Red Hat has issued security advisories and released patched Redis packages (version 7.0.12 and later) to address these issues. The vendor rates the security impact as Important (high). No known exploits in the wild have been reported at this time.

CWE-787Out-of-bounds Write (opens in a new tab)
Base weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighCWE Top 25 (2025): #5
The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
Requirements · Language Selection
Use a language that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
Architecture and Design · Libraries or Frameworks
Use a vetted library or framework that does not allow this weakness to occur or provides constructs that make this weakness easier to avoid.
Operation · Build and Compilation · Environment Hardening
Use automatic buffer overflow detection mechanisms that are offered by certain compilers or compiler extensions. Examples include: the Microsoft Visual Studio /GS flag, Fedora/Red Hat FORTIFY_SOURCE GCC flag, StackGuard, and ProPolice, which provide various mechanisms including canary-based detection and range/index…

CWE-770Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling (opens in a new tab)
Base weaknessLikelihood of exploit: HighCWE Top 25 (2025): #25
The product allocates a reusable resource or group of resources on behalf of an actor without imposing any intended restrictions on the size or number of resources that can be allocated.
Requirements
Clearly specify the minimum and maximum expectations for capabilities, and dictate which behaviors are acceptable when resource allocation reaches limits.
Architecture and Design
Limit the amount of resources that are accessible to unprivileged users. Set per-user limits for resources. Allow the system administrator to define these limits. Be careful to avoid CWE-410.
Architecture and Design
Design throttling mechanisms into the system architecture. The best protection is to limit the amount of resources that an unauthorized user can cause to be expended.
