=====================================================================
1. Summary:
An update for memcached is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.
Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact
of Important. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score,
which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability
from the CVE link(s) in the References section.
2. Relevant releases/architectures:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Client Optional (v. 7) - x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ComputeNode Optional (v. 7) - x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 7) - aarch64, ppc64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server Optional (v. 7) - aarch64, ppc64, ppc64le, s390x, x86_64

3. Description:
memcached is a high-performance, distributed memory object caching system,
generic in nature, but intended for use in speeding up dynamic web
applications by alleviating database load.
Security Fix(es):
* Two integer overflow flaws, leading to heap-based buffer overflows, were
found in the memcached binary protocol. An attacker could create a
specially crafted message that would cause the memcached server to crash
or, potentially, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-8704, CVE-2016-8705)
* An integer overflow flaw, leading to a heap-based buffer overflow, was
found in memcached's parsing of SASL authentication messages. An attacker
could create a specially crafted message that would cause the memcached
server to crash or, potentially, execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2016-8706)
4. Solution:
For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:
https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258
5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
