Details

Mathias Fischer discovered that Squid incorrectly handled certain long strings in headers. A malicious remote server could possibly cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue was only addressed in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2016-2569)

William Lima discovered that Squid incorrectly handled XML parsing when processing Edge Side Includes (ESI). A malicious remote server could possibly cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue was only addressed in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2016-2570)

Alex Rousskov discovered that Squid incorrectly handled response-parsing failures. A malicious remote server could possibly cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue only applied to Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2016-2571)

Santiago Ruano Rincón discovered that Squid incorrectly handled certain Vary headers. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. This issue was only addressed in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS. (CVE-2016-3948)

Louis Dion-Marcil discovered that Squid incorrectly handled certain Edge Side Includes (ESI) responses. A malicious remote server could possibly cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2018-1000024)
