TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of null

Every now and then the error below occurs and crashes Node.
The specific circumstances which trigger it are unknown.

/opt/nodeapp/node_modules/redis-parser/lib/parser.js:560
  while (this.offset < this.buffer.length) {
                                   ^

Running node-redis 2.8.0 and thus node-redis-parser 2.6.0 on Node v8.8.1, AWS Linux

I see there's a node-redis-parser v3.0.0 which has made changes that may or not effect this error, but no updated version of node-redis to use it?

Any updates or status on this? This is currently affecting a project I am working on
