description

Netty's io.netty:netty-codec-memcache can parse certain Memcache binary response length fields incorrectly, causing subsequent response data to be associated with the wrong frame. A malicious Memcache server may exploit this to expose one client's response data to another in applications using shared proxy or cache connections; receiving responses from such a server is the relevant precondition.

mitigation

Upgrade io.netty:netty-codec-memcache to 4.2.18.Final or 4.1.138.Final, as applicable. Until upgraded, restrict Memcache backend connections to trusted servers and isolate client response streams where possible.

fixed in 4.2.18.Final, 4.1.138.Final
