Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update to memcached
announced via advisory MDVSA-2009:105.

Vulnerability Insight:
The process_stat function in Memcached prior 1.2.8 discloses
memory-allocation statistics in response to a stats malloc command,
which allows remote attackers to obtain potentially sensitive
information by sending this command to the daemon's TCP port
(CVE-2009-1255, CVE-2009-1494).

The updated packages have been patched to prevent this.

Affected: 2009.0, 2009.1, Corporate 4.0

Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.

CVSS Score:
5.0
