CVE-2023-28858 (https://github.com/redis/redis-py/pull/2641):

redis-py before 4.5.3, as used in ChatGPT and other products, leaves a connection open after canceling an async Redis command at an inopportune time (in the case of a pipeline operation), and can send response data to the client of an unrelated request in an off-by-one manner. The fixed versions for this CVE Record are 4.3.6, 4.4.3, and 4.5.3; however, CVE-2023-28859 is a separate vulnerability.

CVE-2023-28859 (https://github.com/redis/redis-py/pull/2641):

redis-py through 4.5.3 leaves a connection open after canceling an async Redis command at an inopportune time (in the case of a non-pipeline operation), and can send response data to the client of an unrelated request. NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2023-28858.
