**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions** Squid versions 3.x through 3.5.14 Squid versions 4.x through 4.0.6 **Description** The issue is related to the Edge Side Includes (ESI) parser in Squid, which does not properly check buffer limits during XML parsing. This allows remote HTTP servers to cause a denial of service, resulting in an assertion failure and daemon exit, by sending a crafted XML document. The problem is associated with the files esi/CustomParser.cc and esi/CustomParser.h. **Recommendations** For Squid versions 3.x through 3.5.14, update to version 3.5.15 or later. For Squid versions 4.x through 4.0.6, update to version 4.0.7 or later.
