RHEL 9 support. linkTitle: 7.4.2-54 (February 2024) weight: 72 --- ​[​Redis Enterprise Software version 7.4.2](https://redis.io/downloads/#software) is now available! ## Highlights This version offers: - New Cluster Manager UI enhancements, including Active-Active database management - Full TLS 1.3 support - Automatic recovery configuration - Full IPv6 support, including for internal traffic - Maintenance mode enhancements - Module management enhancements - RHEL 7 and Oracle Linux 7, which were previously deprecated, are no longer supported - RHEL 9 support ## New in this release ### New features - Added full support for TLS 1.3: - TLS 1.3 cipher suites are now configurable for database connections. See [Configure cipher suites]({{< relref "/operate/rs/security/encryption/tls/ciphers" >}}) for details. - TLS 1.3 can be set as the minimum TLS version. See [Configure TLS protocol]({{< relref "/operate/rs/security/encryption/tls/tls-protocols" >}}) for details. - Automatic recovery of databases from persistence files is configurable using the REST API. See [Configure automatic recovery]({{< relref "/operate/rs/databases/recover#configure-automatic-recovery" >}}) for details. - New clusters fully support IPv6, including for internal traffic. See [Enable IPv6 for internal traffic]({{< relref "/operate/rs/networking/multi-ip-ipv6#enable-ipv6-for-internal-traffic" >}}) for details. ### Enhancements - New Cluster Manager UI enhancements: - [Create]({{< relref "/operate/rs/databases/active-active/create" >}}) and [manage]({{< relref "/operate/rs/databases/active-active/manage" >}}) Active-Active databases. - [Configure database defaults]({{< relref "/operate/rs/databases/configure/db-defaults" >}}): endpoint configuration, database proxy, and shards placement. - Configure [TLS cipher suites]({{< relref "/operate/rs/security/encryption/tls/ciphers#edit-ciphers-ui" >}}) and [minimum TLS protocol]({{< relref "/operate/rs/security/encryption/tls/tls-protocols#edit-tls-ui" >}}). - Configure LDAP [authentication timeout]({{< relref "/operate/rs/security/access-control/ldap/enable-role-based-ldap#authentication-timeout" >}}). - [Maintenance mode]({{< relref "/operate/rs/clusters/maintenance-mode" >}}) enhancements: - Only the latest maintenance mode snapshot is kept. - Use the `overwrite_snapshot` option to create a new snapshot when you turn on maintenance mode. - `keep_slave_shards` is deprecated. Use `evict_ha_replica` and `evict_active_active_replica` instead. - View or delete node snapshots using [`/v1/nodes/{node_uid}/snapshots`]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api/requests/nodes/snapshots" >}}) REST API requests. - Added support for RHEL 9. - Improved `actions` REST API: - Improved `progress` field returned by [`GET /v1/actions`]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api/requests/actions" >}}) requests. - New request to get the status of all currently executing, pending, or completed actions for a specific database: [`GET /v1/actions/bdb/`]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api/requests/actions/bdb" >}}) - [`GET /v1/users`]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api/requests/users#get-all-users" >}}) REST API requests include a new `status` field in the response, which indicates whether the user can sign in: - `active`: user can sign in - `locked`: user cannot sign in - Replaced the use of processes for `job_scheduler`, `cnm_http`, and `crdb_coordinator` with threads, which results in significant memory optimization. #### Redis module feature sets Redis Enterprise comes packaged with several modules. As of version 7.4.2, Redis Enterprise includes two feature sets, compatible with different Redis database versions. Bundled Redis modules compatible with Redis database version 7.2: - [RediSearch 2.8.9](https://github.com/RediSearch/RediSearch/releases/tag/v2.8.9) - [RedisJSON 2.6.8](https://github.com/RedisJSON/RedisJSON/releases/tag/v2.6.8) - [RedisTimeSeries 1.10.9](https://github.com/RedisTimeSeries/RedisTimeSeries/releases/tag/v1.10.9) - [RedisBloom 2.6.11](https://github.com/RedisBloom/RedisBloom/releases/tag/v2.6.11) - [RedisGears 2.0.17](https://github.com/RedisGears/RedisGears/releases/tag/v2.0.17-m18) Bundled Redis modules compatible with Redis database versions 6.0 and 6.2: - [RediSearch 2.6.12](https://github.com/RediSearch/RediSearch/releases/tag/v2.6.12) - [RedisJSON 2.4.7](https://github.com/RedisJSON/RedisJSON/releases/tag/v2.4.7) - [RedisTimeSeries 1.8.11](https://github.com/RedisTimeSeries/RedisTimeSeries/releases/tag/v1.8.11) - [RedisBloom 2.4.8](https://github.com/RedisBloom/RedisBloom/releases/tag/v2.4.8) - [RedisGraph v2.10.12](https://github.com/RedisGraph/RedisGraph/releases/tag/v2.10.12) ### Resolved issues - RS57417: Azure OSS cluster with Private Link should no longer return public IPs in response to `CLUSTER` commands. - RS106159: If RESP3 is not supported, `HELLO` requests now return an unknown command error instead of a protocol error. - RS107538: Fixed an issue where DMC proxy perpetually restarted due to a CCS inconsistency. ## Version changes ### Breaking changes - Renamed `sentinel_ssl_policy` field. The new name is `sentinel_tls_mode`. - You can only change the discovery service policy using `sentinel_tls_mode`. - When retrieving the value of the current policy using [`GET /v1/cluster`]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api/requests/cluster#get-cluster" >}}), both fields are returned for backward compatibility. - Port 3345 is now reserved for internal use. - Type of `progress` field returned by [`GET /v1/actions`]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api/requests/actions" >}}) request modified from `integer` to `float`. ### Deprecations #### API deprecations - The replica HA cluster policy is deprecated. - The maintenance mode option `keep_slave_shards` is deprecated in `rladmin` and the REST API. Use `evict_ha_replica` and `evict_active_active_replica` instead. - `/v1/debuginfo` REST API paths are deprecated. Use the new paths [`/v1/cluster/debuginfo`]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api/requests/cluster/debuginfo" >}}), [`/v1/nodes/debuginfo`]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api/requests/nodes/debuginfo" >}}), and [`/v1/bdbs/debuginfo`]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/rest-api/requests/bdbs/debuginfo" >}}) instead. #### Legacy UI deprecation The legacy UI is deprecated in favor of the new Cluster Manager UI and will be removed in a future release. #### Redis 6.0 database deprecation Redis database version 6.0 is deprecated as of Redis Enterprise Software version 7.4.2 and will be removed in a future release. To prepare for the future removal of Redis 6.0: - For Redis Enterprise 6.2.* clusters, upgrade Redis 6.0 databases to Redis 6.2. See the [Redis 6.2 release notes](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/redis/redis/6.2/00-RELEASENOTES) for the list of changes. - For Redis Enterprise 7.2.4 and 7.4.2 clusters, upgrade Redis 6.0 databases to Redis 7.2. Before you upgrade your databases, see the list of [Redis 7.2 breaking changes]({{< relref "/operate/rs/release-notes/rs-7-2-4-releases/rs-7-2-4-52#redis-72-breaking-changes" >}}) and update any applications that connect to your database to handle these changes. #### Operating system retirements - RHEL 7 and Oracle Linux 7 were previously announced as deprecated in the [Redis Enterprise Software 7.2.4 release notes]({{< relref "/operate/rs/release-notes/rs-7-2-4-releases#deprecations" >}}). As of Redis Enterprise Software 7.4.2, RHEL 7 and Oracle Linux 7 are no longer supported. #### Security retirements - The RC4 encryption cipher, which was previously deprecated in favor of stronger ciphers, is no longer supported. - The 3DES encryption cipher, which was previously deprecated in favor of stronger ciphers like AES, is no longer supported. Verify that all clients, applications, and connections support the AES cipher. - TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 connections, which were previously deprecated in favor of TLS 1.2 or later, are no longer supported. Verify that all clients, applications, and connections support TLS 1.2 or later. ### Supported platforms The following table provides a snapshot of supported platforms as of this Redis Enterprise Software release.

Use the REST API or legacy UI instead. See [Remove a cluster node]({{< relref "/operate/rs/clusters/remove-node" >}}) for instructions. - Purge an Active-Active instance. Use [`crdb-cli crdb purge-instance`]({{< relref "/operate/rs/references/cli-utilities/crdb-cli/crdb/purge-instance" >}}) instead. - Search and export the log. #### OpenSSL compatibility issue for 7.4.2 modules on Amazon Linux 2 Due to an OpenSSL 1.1 compatibility issue between modules and clusters, Redis Enterprise Software version 7.4.2-54 is not fully supported on Amazon Linux 2 clusters with databases that use the following modules: RedisGears, RediSearch, or RedisTimeSeries. This issue will be fixed in a future maintenance release. #### RedisGraph prevents upgrade to RHEL 9 You cannot upgrade from a prior RHEL version to RHEL 9 if the Redis Enterprise cluster contains a RedisGraph module, even if unused by any database. The [RedisGraph module has reached End-of-Life](https://redis.com/blog/redisgraph-eol/) and is completely unavailable in RHEL 9. #### Cannot create Redis v6.x Active-Active databases with modules You cannot create Active-Active databases that use Redis version 6.0 or 6.2 with modules. Databases that use Redis version 7.2 do not have this limitation. This limitation will be fixed in a future maintenance release. ## Security #### Open source Redis security fixes compatibility As part of Redis's commitment to security, Redis Enterprise Software implements the latest [security fixes](https://github.com/redis/redis/releases) available with [open source Redis](https://github.com/redis/redis). Redis Enterprise has already included the fixes for the relevant CVEs. Some CVEs announced for open source Redis do not affect Redis Enterprise due to different or additional functionality available in Redis Enterprise that is not available in open source Redis. Redis Enterprise 7.4.2-54 supports open source Redis 7.2, 6.2, and 6.0. Below is the list of open source Redis CVEs fixed by version. Redis 7.2.x: - (CVE-2023-41056) In some cases, Redis may incorrectly handle resizing of memory buffers, which can result in incorrect accounting of buffer sizes and lead to heap overflow and potential remote code execution. - (CVE-2023-41053) Redis does not correctly identify keys accessed by `SORT_RO` and, as a result, may grant users executing this command access to keys that are not explicitly authorized by the ACL configuration. (Redis 7.2.1) Redis 7.0.x: - (CVE-2023-41056) In some cases, Redis may incorrectly handle resizing of memory buffers, which can result in incorrect accounting of buffer sizes and lead to heap overflow and potential remote code execution. - (CVE-2023-41053) Redis does not correctly identify keys accessed by `SORT_RO` and, as a result, may grant users executing this command access to keys that are not explicitly authorized by the ACL configuration. (Redis 7.0.13) - (CVE-2023-36824) Extracting key names from a command and a list of arguments may, in some cases, trigger a heap overflow and result in reading random heap memory, heap corruption, and potentially remote code execution. Specifically: using `COMMAND GETKEYS*` and validation of key names in ACL rules.

(Redis 7.0.8) - (CVE-2022-35951) Executing an `XAUTOCLAIM` command on a stream key in a specific state, with a specially crafted `COUNT` argument, may cause an integer overflow, a subsequent heap overflow, and potentially lead to remote code execution. The problem affects Redis versions 7.0.0 or newer. (Redis 7.0.5) - (CVE-2022-31144) A specially crafted `XAUTOCLAIM` command on a stream key in a specific state may result in heap overflow and potentially remote code execution. The problem affects Redis versions 7.0.0 or newer. (Redis 7.0.4) - (CVE-2022-24834) A specially crafted Lua script executing in Redis can trigger a heap overflow in the cjson and cmsgpack libraries, and result in heap corruption and potentially remote code execution. The problem exists in all versions of Redis with Lua scripting support, starting from 2.6, and affects only authenticated and authorized users. (Redis 7.0.12) - (CVE-2022-24736) An attacker attempting to load a specially crafted Lua script can cause NULL pointer dereference which will result in a crash of the `redis-server` process. This issue affects all versions of Redis. (Redis 7.0.0) - (CVE-2022-24735) By exploiting weaknesses in the Lua script execution environment, an attacker with access to Redis can inject Lua code that will execute with the (potentially higher) privileges of another Redis user. (Redis 7.0.0) Redis 6.2.x: - (CVE-2023-28856) Authenticated users can use the `HINCRBYFLOAT` command to create an invalid hash field that will crash Redis on access.

(Redis 6.2.13) - (CVE-2022-24736) An attacker attempting to load a specially crafted Lua script can cause NULL pointer dereference which will result in a crash of the `redis-server` process. This issue affects all versions of Redis. (Redis 6.2.7) - (CVE-2022-24735) By exploiting weaknesses in the Lua script execution environment, an attacker with access to Redis can inject Lua code that will execute with the (potentially higher) privileges of another Redis user. (Redis 6.2.7) - (CVE-2021-41099) Integer to heap buffer overflow handling certain string commands and network payloads, when `proto-max-bulk-len` is manually configured to a non-default, very large value. (Redis 6.2.6) - (CVE-2021-32762) Integer to heap buffer overflow issue in `redis-cli` and `redis-sentinel` parsing large multi-bulk replies on some older and less common platforms. (Redis 6.2.6) - (CVE-2021-32761) An integer overflow bug in Redis version 2.2 or newer can be exploited using the `BITFIELD` command to corrupt the heap and potentially result with remote code execution. (Redis 6.2.5) - (CVE-2021-32687) Integer to heap buffer overflow with intsets, when `set-max-intset-entries` is manually configured to a non-default, very large value.

(Redis 6.2.6) - (CVE-2021-32628) Integer to heap buffer overflow handling ziplist-encoded data types, when configuring a large, non-default value for `hash-max-ziplist-entries`, `hash-max-ziplist-value`, `zset-max-ziplist-entries` or `zset-max-ziplist-value`. (Redis 6.2.6) - (CVE-2021-32627) Integer to heap buffer overflow issue with streams, when configuring a non-default, large value for `proto-max-bulk-len` and `client-query-buffer-limit`. (Redis 6.2.6) - (CVE-2021-32626) Specially crafted Lua scripts may result with Heap buffer overflow. (Redis 6.2.6) - (CVE-2021-32625) An integer overflow bug in Redis version 6.0 or newer can be exploited using the STRALGO LCS command to corrupt the heap and potentially result with remote code execution. This is a result of an incomplete fix by CVE-2021-29477. (Redis 6.2.4) - (CVE-2021-29478) An integer overflow bug in Redis 6.2 could be exploited to corrupt the heap and potentially result with remote code execution. The vulnerability involves changing the default set-max-intset-entries configuration value, creating a large set key that consists of integer values and using the COPY command to duplicate it. The integer overflow bug exists in all versions of Redis starting with 2.6, where it could result with a corrupted RDB or DUMP payload, but not exploited through COPY (which did not exist before 6.2). (Redis 6.2.3) - (CVE-2021-29477) An integer overflow bug in Redis version 6.0 or newer could be exploited using the STRALGO LCS command to corrupt the heap and potentially result in remote code execution.
