Last modified

CVE-2015-8080 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.5/10 on the CVSS scale. Integer overflow in the getnum function in lua_struct.c in Redis 2.8.x before 2.8.24 and 3.0.x before 3.0.6 allows context-dependent attackers with permission to run Lua code in a Redis session to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly bypass intended sandbox restrictions via a large number, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow.. EPSS estimates a 5.36% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Description
