lua scripting
About this tag
Lua scripting in Redis is a recurring security topic on WindowsForum.com, with multiple threads detailing vulnerabilities such as CVE-2022-24735 (privilege escalation via script injection) and CVE-2022-24736 (denial of service through malformed scripts). These discussions cover patching strategies, ACL-based mitigations, and the broader supply-chain implications for Azure Linux and other Microsoft products. Additionally, Lua scripting appears in the context of AnduinOS updates, where the librime-plugin-lua component was added for input method enhancement. The tag also touches on Windows 11 system services that use minimalist scripting for performance and battery management, though these are not directly related to Lua. Overall, the tag focuses on Lua's role in enterprise security, Redis hardening, and cross-platform scripting scenarios.
Redis’ recent Lua-scripting vulnerabilities have once again put the spotlight on supply-chain visibility: Microsoft’s MSRC entry notes that Azure Linux includes the affected open‑source component and is therefore potentially affected, but that wording is a product‑scoped attestation rather than...
Redis’ Lua scripting subsystem contained a subtle but consequential weakness that let a less‑privileged user inject code which could later execute with the privileges of a higher‑privileged Redis user — a bug tracked as CVE‑2022‑24735 and fixed in Redis 6.2.7 and 7.0.0. Background / Overview...
A malformed Lua script that reaches Redis’ embedded interpreter can trigger a NULL-pointer dereference and crash redis-server, a denial‑of‑service flaw tracked as CVE‑2022‑24736 that was fixed upstream in Redis 6.2.7 and 7.0.0; the practical mitigations for environments that cannot immediately...
