CVE-2025-67733

Valkey is a distributed key-value database. Prior to versions 9.0.2, 8.1.6, 8.0.7, and 7.2.12, a malicious user can use scripting commands to inject arbitrary information into the response stream for the given client, potentially corrupting or returning tampered data to other users on the same connection. The error handling code for lua scripts does not properly handle null characters. Versions 9.0.2, 8.1.6, 8.0.7, and 7.2.12 fix the issue.

Valkey is an advanced key-value store. It is often referred to as a data structure server since keys can contain strings, hashes, lists, sets and sorted sets. You can run atomic operations on these types, like appending to a string; incrementing the value in a hash; pushing to a list; computing set intersection, union and difference; or getting the member with highest ranking in a sorted set. In order to achieve its outstanding performance, Valkey works with an in-memory dataset. Depending on your use case, you can persist it either by dumping the dataset to disk every once in a while, or by appending each command to a log. Valkey also supports trivial-to-setup master-slave replication, with very fast non-blocking first synchronization, auto-reconnection on net split and so forth. Other features include Transactions, Pub/Sub, Lua scripting, Keys with a limited time-to-live, and configuration settings to make Valkey behave like a cache. You can use Valkey from most programming languages also.

Security Fix(es):

• Valkey: Valkey: Data tampering and denial of service via improper null character handling in Lua scripts (CVE-2025-67733)

• valkey: Valkey: Denial of Service via invalid clusterbus packet (CVE-2026-21863)

It was discovered that Valkey incorrectly handled errors for lua scripts. An attacker could possibly use this issue to inject arbitrary information into the response stream for other clients. (CVE-2025-67733)

It was discovered that Valkey incorrectly handled malformed cluster bus messages. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Valkey to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2026-21863)
