    Package : memcached
    Vulnerability : several
    Problem type : remote
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2011-4971 CVE-2013-7239
    Debian Bug : 706426 733643

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been found in memcached, a high-performance memory object caching system. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
    project identifies the following issues:

    CVE-2011-4971

    Stefan Bucur reported that memcached could be caused to crash by
    sending a specially crafted packet.

    CVE-2013-7239

    It was reported that SASL authentication could be bypassed due to a
    flaw related to the managment of the SASL authentication state. With
    a specially crafted request, a remote attacker may be able to
    authenticate with invalid SASL credentials.

    For the oldstable distribution (squeeze), these problems have been fixed
    in version 1.4.5-1+deb6u1. Note that the patch for CVE-2013-7239 was not applied for the oldstable distribution as SASL support is not enabled in
    this version. This update also provides the fix for CVE-2013-0179 which
    was fixed for stable already.

    For the stable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in
    version 1.4.13-0.2+deb7u1.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems will be fixed soon.

    We recommend that you upgrade your memcached packages.
