CWE-119

Description

The do_item_get function in items.c in memcached 1.4.4 and other versions before 1.4.17, when running in verbose mode, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) via a request to delete a key, which does not account for the lack of a null terminator in the key and triggers a buffer over-read when printing to stderr, a different vulnerability than CVE-2013-0179.

• memcached memcached 1.4.4 • memcached memcached 1.4.5 • memcached memcached 1.4.6 • memcached memcached 1.4.7 • memcached memcached 1.4.8 • memcached memcached 1.4.9 • memcached memcached 1.4.10 • memcached memcached 1.4.11 • memcached memcached 1.4.12 • memcached memcached 1.4.13 • memcached memcached 1.4.14 • memcached memcached 1.4.15 • memcached memcached 1.4.16
