Redis · Redis · CVE-2016-10517
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Redis versions prior to 3.2.7
**Description**
The issue is related to the networking.c component of the Redis database management system, which lacks a check for POST and Host: strings. This allows for "Cross Protocol Scripting" and can be exploited by a remote attacker using specially crafted requests to access confidential data.
**Recommendations**
For Redis versions prior to 3.2.7, update to version 3.2.7 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the Redis TCP port to minimize the risk of exploitation.
