Fedora 41: valkey 2025-b332afed45 Security Advisory Updates
Summary
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.
Update Information:
update to 8.0.2 fixes CVE-2024-46981 - Lua script commands may lead to remote code execution fixes CVE-2024-51741 - Denial-of-service due to malformed ACL selectors
