+ <description>
+ <p>
+ Squid incorrectly handles TRACE requests that contain a "Max-Forwards"
+ header field with value "0" in the clientProcessRequest() function.
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="low">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker can send specially crafted TRACE HTTP requests that
+ will terminate the child process. A quickly repeated attack will lead
+ to a Denial of Service.
+ </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-2.6.12"</code>
