Description SMASH SMASH 2023-10-30 09:51:50 UTC

In Memcached before 1.6.22, a buffer overflow exists when processing multiget
requests in proxy mode, if there are many spaces after the "get" substring.

Comment 1 Thomas Leroy 2023-10-30 09:54:31 UTC

proxy component has been introduced in v1.6.13, so only SUSE:ALP:Source:Standard:1.0 is affected.

Thanks Thomas.

I have submitted 1.6.22 into devel project:

1.6.22 is now in TW,ALP/memcached.
I believe all fixed.
