What is CVE-2026-66373?

CVE-2026-66373 is a high-severity use after free vulnerability in Redis, published on 25 Jul 2026. Any signed-in user can exploit it over the network, with no action from the victim.

Official description

Redis before 8.8.0, in the unusual case where an authenticated attacker can execute RESTORE, allows remote code execution via a RESTORE payload where the same NACK (pending entry) is referenced by more than one consumer, because deleting both consumers via XGROUP DELCONSUMER leads to a double free. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-25243.

Weakness: CWE-415
