Package : redis
CVE ID : CVE-2013-7458
Debian Bug : 832460
It was discovered that redis, a persistent key-value database, did not
properly protect redis-cli history files: they were created by default
with world-readable permissions.
Users and systems administrators may want to proactively change
permissions on existing ~/rediscli_history files, instead of waiting
for the updated redis-cli to do so the next time it is run.
For the stable distribution (jessie), this problem has been fixed in
version 2:2.8.17-1+deb8u5.
For the testing (stretch) and unstable (sid) distributions, this
problem has been fixed in version 2:3.2.1-4.
We recommend that you upgrade your redis packages.
