+	  <p>Multiple integer overflow vulnerabilities exist within Memcached
+	    that could be exploited to achieve remote code execution on the
+	    targeted system. These vulnerabilities manifest in various Memcached
+	    functions that are used in inserting, appending, prepending, or
+	    modifying key-value data pairs. Systems which also have Memcached
+	    compiled with support for SASL authentication are also vulnerable to
+	    a third flaw due to how Memcached handles SASL authentication
+	    commands.</p>
+	  <p>An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities by sending a
+	    specifically crafted Memcached command to the targeted server.
+	    Additionally, these vulnerabilities could also be exploited to leak
+	    sensitive process information which an attacker could use to bypass
+	    common exploitation mitigations, such as ASLR, and can be triggered
+	    multiple times. This enables reliable exploitation which makes these
+	    vulnerabilities severe.</p>
