NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream redis package and not the redis package as distributed by Ubuntu. See How to fix? for Ubuntu:16.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

The clusterLoadConfig function in cluster.c in Redis 4.0.2 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds array index and application crash) or possibly have unspecified other impact by leveraging "limited access to the machine."
