MDKSA-2005:014: squid |
||

Check for the version of the squid package Detailed Explanation for this Vulnerability Assessment The remote host is missing the patch for the advisory MDKSA-2005:014 (squid). 'infamous41md' discovered two vulnerabilities in the squid proxy cache server. The first is a buffer overflow in the Gopher response parser which leads to memory corruption and would usually crash squid (CVE-2005-0094). The second is an integer overflow in the receiver of WCCP (Web Cache Communication Protocol) messages. A possible hacker could send a specially crafted UDP datagram that would cause squid to crash (CVE-2005-0095). The updated packages have been patched to prevent these problems.
