The version of redis installed on the remote host is prior to 6.2.5-1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the ALAS2REDIS6-2023-006 advisory.
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.

"The version of redis installed on the remote host is prior to 6.2.5-1. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as
referenced in the ALAS2REDIS6-2023-006 advisory.
- Redis is an open source, in-memory database that persists on disk. An integer overflow bug affecting all
versions of Redis can be exploited to corrupt the heap and potentially be used to leak arbitrary contents
of the heap or trigger remote code execution. The vulnerability involves changing the default set-max-
intset-entries configuration parameter to a very large value and constructing specially crafted commands
to manipulate sets. The problem is fixed in Redis versions 6.2.6, 6.0.16 and 5.0.14. An additional
workaround to mitigate the problem without patching the redis-server executable is to prevent users from
modifying the set-max-intset-entries configuration parameter. This can be done using ACL to restrict
unprivileged users from using the CONFIG SET command. (CVE-2021-32687)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
