Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream valkey-devel package and not the valkey-devel package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

Redis is an in-memory data structure store. In redis-server from 7.2.0 until 8.6.3, the unblock client flow does not handle an error return from processCommandAndResetClient when re-executing a blocked command. If a blocked client is evicted during this flow, an authenticated attacker can trigger a use-after-free that may lead to remote code execution. This has been patched in version 8.6.3.
