CVE-2009-2415

31
FAUCET Score

CVE-2009-2415 describes multiple integer overflows in memcached versions 1.1.12 and 1.2.2, which can lead to heap-based buffer overflows and allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary code. This vulnerability carries a critical CVSS score of 10.0, indicating a network-based attack with low complexity and complete compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While no public exploit intelligence like Metasploit modules or ExploitDB entries are available, and community discussion is minimal, its high EPSS score suggests a non-trivial likelihood of exploitation.
