CVE-2025-32023
Description
A flaw was found in Redis. This flaw allows an authenticated user to trigger an integer overflow by sending a specially crafted string, resulting in a stack or heap out-of-bounds write during hyperloglog operations. This issue potentially results in remote code execution.
Statement
This flaw can only be exploited by an authenticated attacker when the Redis server has hyperloglog operations implemented, limiting the impact of this issue.
Mitigation
Prevent users, specially unprivileged or untrusted users, to execute hyperloglog operations by using ACL to restrict hyperloglog commands.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).

Red Hat CVSS v3 Score Explanation
This issue can be exploited by an authenticated remote attacker. To reflect this condition, the attack vector metric was set to network.
Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Integrity
Technical Impact: Modify Memory; Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands
Write operations could cause memory corruption. In some cases, an adversary can modify control data such as return addresses in order to execute unexpected code.
Availability
Technical Impact: DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart
Attempting to access out-of-range, invalid, or unauthorized memory could cause the product to crash.
Other
Technical Impact: Unexpected State
Subsequent write operations can produce undefined or unexpected results.
