Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

Netty's io.netty:netty-codec-redis package, versions from 4.2.0.Alpha1 before 4.2.13.Final and versions before 4.1.133.Final, does not reject CRLF characters in inline command, simple string and error messages. A remote attacker who can control the content of those messages may inject extra Redis commands or forge responses, which the source says can lead to high confidentiality and integrity impact. Upgrade to 4.2.13.Final or 4.1.133.Final. No other workaround is listed.
