How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Ubuntu:20.04 redis.

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:20.04 relevant fixed versions and status.

An integer overflow in the getnum function in lua_struct.c in Redis before 6.0.3 allows context-dependent attackers with permission to run Lua code in a Redis session to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and application crash) or possibly bypass intended sandbox restrictions via a large number, which triggers a stack-based buffer overflow. NOTE: this issue exists because of a CVE-2015-8080 regression.
