Synopsis

The remote NewStart CGSL host is affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

Description

The remote NewStart CGSL host, running version MAIN 7.02, has memcached packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities:

- In Memcached before 1.6.22, an off-by-one error exists when processing proxy requests in proxy mode, if \n is used instead of \r\n. (CVE-2023-46853)

- 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. (CVE-2023-46852)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
