sending bad data (LP: #558328)

8. By David Martínez Moreno on 2009-10-16

* New upstream release, primarily bugfixes, some of them critical, hence
  the urgency:
  - Reject keys larger than 250 bytes in the binary protocol.
  - Bounds checking on stats cachedump.
  - Binary protocol set+cas wasn't returning a new cas ID.
  - Binary quitq didn't actually close the connection
  - Slab boundary checking cleanup (bad logic in unreachable code)
  - Get hit memory optimizations
  - Disallow -t options that cause the server to not work
  - Killed off incomplete slab rebalance feature.
* debian/patches:
  - 01_init_script_compliant_with_LSB.patch: Remade as upstream applied a
    whitespace cleanup script that broke the patch.
  - 02_manpage_additions.patch: Added missing parameters to the memcached
    manpage.
* Removed TODO from debian/docs.

7. By David Martínez Moreno on 2009-05-02

* New upstream release, urgency=high because of two critical bugs prior
  to this release:
  - In 1.2.7 under multithreaded mode, memcached would never restart
    accepting connections after hitting the maximum connection limit.
  - Remove 'stats maps' command, as it is a potential information leak,
    usable if versions prior to 1.2.8 ever have buffer overflows discovered
    (CVE-2009-1494). Closes: #526554.
  - Make -b command (setting the TCP listen backlog) actually work.
* debian/rules: Removed obsolete --disable-static.
