| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Squid versions prior to 2.6.STABLE7
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, potentially leading to a disruption in the availability of protected information. This can be achieved by overloading the external acl queue, which triggers an infinite loop in the
aclMatchExternal function. The exploitation of this issue can be done remotely.Recommendations
For Squid versions prior to 2.6.STABLE7, update to version 2.6.STABLE7 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the
aclMatchExternal function to minimize the risk of exploitation.Fix
