TITLE:
Fedora update for memcached

SECUNIA ADVISORY ID:
SA37729

VERIFY ADVISORY:
http://secunia.com/advisories/37729/

DESCRIPTION:
Fedora has issued an update for memcached. This fixes some
vulnerabilities, which can be exploited by malicious people to
potentially compromise a vulnerable system.

The vulnerabilities are caused due to errors when converting integers
and can be exploited to cause heap-based buffer overflows.

Successful exploitation may allow execution of arbitrary code.

SOLUTION:
Apply updated packages using the yum utility ("yum update
memcached").
