Framework semantic default
Redis 8 license RSALv2 SSPLv1 AGPLv3 license file scanner allow-list
A scanner sees a different license set than the deployment allow-list expects.
Agent Quick Fix
Repair against the current Redis contract, then keep the change narrow and source-backed.
Product: Redis
Current-contract area: Redis 8 license selection breaks automated compliance policy
Likely root cause: A scanner sees a different license set than the deployment allow-list expects.
Repair direction: Verifier checks behavior across multiple requests/build modes, not merely compilation. Verify required commands/modules and supported patch channel.
Symptom
A scanner sees a different license set than the deployment allow-list expects.
Why This Happens
Local code often type-checks under both old and new framework semantics; the failure depends on the installed framework version and current runtime defaults.
Common Wrong Fixes
- Changing local code without checking the current external contract.
- Retrying the same install, build, or API call with no version/source change.
- Applying a broad unsafe bypass when a narrow compatibility fix is available.
