--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Name : redis
Product : Fedora 34
Version : 6.2.7
Release : 1.fc34
URL :   https://redis.io
Summary : A persistent key-value database
Description :
Redis 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, Redis 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.

Redis 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 Redis behave like
a cache.

You can use Redis from most programming languages also.

Update Information:

**Redis 6.2.7** - Released Wed Apr 27 12:00:00 IDT 2022 Upgrade urgency:
**SECURITY**, contains fixes to security issues. Security Fixes: *
(CVE-2022-24736) An attacker attempting to load a specially crafted Lua script
can cause NULL pointer dereference which will result with a crash of the
redis-server process. This issue affects all versions of Redis. [reported by
Aviv Yahav]. * (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. [reported by Aviv Yahav]. Potentially Breaking Fixes * LPOP/RPOP with
count against non-existing list return null array (#10095) * LPOP/RPOP used to
produce wrong replies when count is 0 (#9692) Performance and resource
utilization improvements * Speed optimization in command execution pipeline
(#10502) * Fix regression in Z[REV]RANGE commands (by-rank) introduced in Redis
6.2 (#10337) Platform / toolchain support related improvements * Fix RSS
metrics on NetBSD and OpenBSD (#10116, #10149) * Fix OpenSSL 3.0.x related
issues (#10291) Bug Fixes * Lua: Add checks for min-slave-* configs when
evaluating Lua scripts (#10160) * Lua: fix crash on a script call with many
arguments, a regression in v6.2.6 (#9809) * Tracking: Make invalidation messages
always after command's reply (#9422) * Fix excessive stream trimming due to an
overflow (#10068) * Add missed error counting for INFO errorstats (#9646) * Fix
geo search bounding box check causing missing results (#10018) * Improve EXPIRE
TTL overflow detection (#9839) * Modules: Fix thread safety violation when a
module thread adds an error reply, broken in 6.2 (#10278) * Modules: Fix missing
and duplicate error stats (#10278) * Module APIs: release clients blocked on
module commands in cluster resharding and down state (#9483) * Sentinel: Fix
memory leak with TLS (#9753) * Sentinel: Fix issues with hostname support
(#10146) * Sentinel: Fix election failures on certain container environments
(#10197)
