Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions cloudpub-redis versions (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue allows for potential remote code execution (RCE) due to the insecure download of binary resources over HTTP, making it susceptible to man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks. If an attacker is positioned between the user and the remote server or has a privileged network position, they can intercept the response and replace the executable with a malicious one, resulting in code execution on the system running cloudpub-redis.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability. As a mitigation measure, consider avoiding the use of this package and use a different package if available. Alternatively, reduce the risk of exploitation by ensuring that this package is not installed while connected to a public network.
