pentesting-redis
Testing Redis in-memory data stores (default port 6379) for unauthenticated access, weak AUTH credentials, keyspace dumping, and the high-impact RCE primitives - module load (system.exec), webshell/cron write via CONFIG SET dir + dbfilename + SAVE, SSH authorized_keys write, Lua sandbox escape CVEs, and master-slave replication abuse - during authorized engagements.

# Pentesting Redis (port 6379)
## When to Use
- Default port `6379/tcp`; Redis is a **plain-text line protocol** (optionally TLS), so `nc` and `redis-cli` both work directly.
- Banner/`nmap` shows `redis` and a version like `Redis key-value store 4.0.9`.
- Use whenever 6379 is reachable — Redis is unauthenticated by default and frequently exposed without a firewall.
## Quick Enumeration
```bash
nmap --script redis-info -sV -p6379 <IP>
msfconsole -q -x 'use auxiliary/scanner/redis/redis_server; set RHOSTS <IP>; run; exit'
# Connect (text protocol)
nc -vn <IP> 6379
