+ <title>Squid: Multiple Denial of Service vulnerabilities</title>
+ <synopsis>
+ Two vulnerabilities have been found in Squid which make it susceptible to
+ Denial of Service attacks.

+ <background>
+ <p>
+ Squid is a multi-protocol proxy server.
+ </p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Squid fails to correctly handle ftp:// URI's. There is also an error in
+ the external_acl queue which can cause an infinite looping condition.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>
+ An attacker could attempt to retrieve a specially crafted URI via a
+ Squid server causing the service to crash. If an attacker could
+ generate a sufficiently high load on the Squid services, they could
+ cause a Denial of Service by forcing Squid into an infinite loop.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All Squid users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=net-proxy/squid-2.6.7"</code>
