Memcrashed Exploit
This exploit is used to better understand the memcrashed exploit brought to light thanks to CloudFlare. It uses a vulnerable memcached server list and a destination target to fetch known keys by id and set payload if no keys exist.
Mitigation:
Disable memcached service if not in use, use firewalls to block access to memcached service from outside the network, use authentication for memcached service.
