The Memcached feature on Linux was the way hackers were able to run a DDoS attack on GitHub. Memcashed is an in-memory key-value store for small chunks of arbitrary data (strings, objects) from results of database calls.  In these attacks, hackers inundate servers with small UDP-based packets. This DDoS attack was one of the longest attack ever recorded and lasted eight minutes.
