The condition on line 1417 incorrectly checked 'server_ver is None or server_ver is None' when it should check 'server_ver is None or server_name is None'. This bug would allow server_name to be None without raising an error, which would then cause issues when server_name is used later in the comparison at line 1424.

Summary
CacheProxyConnection.connect()where the condition incorrectly checksserver_ver is None or server_ver is Noneinstead ofserver_ver is None or server_name is NoneBug Description
In
redis/connection.pyat line 1417, the validation check for server metadata has a typo whereserver_veris checked twice instead of checking bothserver_verandserver_name.Before:
After:
Impact
This bug would allow
server_nameto beNonewithout raising an error during connection validation. Later at line 1424,server_nameis used in a comparison (server_name != self.DEFAULT_SERVER_NAME), which would cause unexpected behavior ifserver_namewasNone.Testing
The fix is a simple one-character change that corrects the variable name in the condition. No new functionality is added.
