NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream memcached package and not the memcached package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

memcached before 1.4.17, when running in verbose mode, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via a request that triggers an "unbounded key print" during logging, related to an issue that was "quickly grepped out of the source tree," a different vulnerability than CVE-2013-0179 and CVE-2013-7290.
