As a result, we are unable to ensure the desired level of protection for sensitive data stored in Redis. *Expected Behavior:* We expect Kamailio to allow the configuration of password authentication for Sentinel in the NDB Redis integration, enabling a secure and password-protected connection to the Redis instances. *Proposed Solution:* To address this issue, we recommend implementing a feature that enables password authentication for the Sentinel-based NDB Redis connections. This improvement will provide an added layer of security, ensuring that only authorized users can access the Redis instances. *Impact:* The absence of password authentication support poses a security risk, making our system vulnerable to potential unauthorized access and data breaches. Implementing this enhancement will safeguard sensitive information and strengthen our Redis integration's security framework. Note: as of now NDB REDIS support redis authentication using password <!-- Explain what you did, what you expected to happen, and what actually happened. --> ### Troubleshooting #### Reproduction Steps to Reproduce:* 1. Attempt to configure password authentication for Sentinel in kamailio NDB Redis integration. ex: modparam("ndb_redis", "server", "name=srvZ;sentinel_group=group_name;sentinel_master=1;sentinel=1.2.3.4:26379;sentinel=1.2.3.5:26379";pass=mypassword") *It is failed to connect the sentinel * <!-- If the issue can be reproduced, describe how it can be done. --> #### Debugging Data <!-- If you got a core dump, use gdb to extract troubleshooting data - full backtrace, local variables and the list of the code at the issue location. gdb /path/to/kamailio /path/to/corefile bt full info locals list If you are familiar with gdb, feel free to attach more of what you consider to be relevant. --> ``` (paste your debugging data here) ``` #### Log Messages <!-- Check the syslog file and if there are relevant log messages printed by Kamailio, add them next, or attach to issue, or provide a link to download them (e.g., to a pastebin site). --> ``` (paste your log messages here) ``` #### SIP Traffic <!-- If the issue is exposed by processing specific SIP messages, grab them with ngrep or save in a pcap file, then add them next, or attach to issue, or provide a link to download them (e.g., to a pastebin site). --> ``` (paste your sip traffic here) ``` ### Possible Solutions <!-- If you found a solution or workaround for the issue, describe it. Ideally, provide a pull request with a fix. --> ### Additional Information * **Kamailio Version** - output of `kamailio -v` ``` (paste your output here) ``` * **Operating System**: <!-- Details about the operating system, the type: Linux (e.g.,: Debian 8.4, Ubuntu 16.04, CentOS 7.1, ...), MacOS, xBSD, Solaris, ...; Kernel details (output of `lsb_release -a` and `uname -a`) --> ``` (paste your output here) ``` -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/kamailio/kamailio/issues/3530 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
