The version of memcached installed on the remote CBL Mariner 2.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2023-46853 advisory.

  • 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)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
