How to Find Exposed Redis Servers on the Internet

A step-by-step guide to discovering unprotected Redis instances using Zondex internet search.

1

Search for Redis on default port

Redis typically runs on port 6379. Start with a basic search to find all indexed Redis instances.

You can also search port:6379 alone to find services running on the Redis default port.

2

Filter by country

Narrow results to a specific country to focus your research scope.

lightbulb

Use ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country codes: US, DE, GB, FR, JP, etc.

3

Check for vulnerabilities

Find Redis servers with known CVEs that may be exploitable.

4

Search by organization

Focus on a specific organization to assess their Redis exposure.

lightbulb

Use quotes around organization names with spaces or special characters.

5

Look for specific versions

Older Redis versions may have known vulnerabilities. Search for specific version strings.

lightbulb

Redis versions below 6.0 typically have no built-in ACL system.
