Squid is a web proxy cache. Starting in version 3.5.27 and prior to version 6.8, Squid may be vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack against HTTP Chunked decoder due to an uncontrolled recursion bug. This problem allows a remote attacker to cause Denial of Service when sending a crafted, chunked, encoded HTTP Message. This bug is fixed in Squid version 6.8. In addition, patches addressing this problem for the stable releases can be found in Squid's patch archives. There is no workaround for this issue.

  - Squid is an open source caching proxy for the Web supporting HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and more. Due to a Collapse     of Data into Unsafe Value bug ,Squid may be vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack against HTTP header     parsing. This problem allows a remote client or a remote server to perform Denial of Service when sending     oversized headers in HTTP messages. In versions of Squid prior to 6.5 this can be achieved if the     request_header_max_size or reply_header_max_size settings are unchanged from the default. In Squid version     6.5 and later, the default setting of these parameters is safe. Squid will emit a critical warning in     cache.log if the administrator is setting these parameters to unsafe values. Squid will not at this time     prevent these settings from being changed to unsafe values. Users are advised to upgrade to version 6.5.

As a workaround, prevent access to Cache Manager using Squid's main access     control: `http_access deny manager`. (CVE-2024-23638)

  - Squid is a web proxy cache. Starting in version 3.5.27 and prior to version 6.8, Squid may be vulnerable     to a Denial of Service attack against HTTP Chunked decoder due to an uncontrolled recursion bug. This     problem allows a remote attacker to cause Denial of Service when sending a crafted, chunked, encoded HTTP     Message. This bug is fixed in Squid version 6.8. In addition, patches addressing this problem for the     stable releases can be found in Squid's patch archives. There is no workaround for this issue.
    (CVE-2024-25111)

  - Squid is an open source caching proxy for the Web supporting HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and more. Due to a Collapse     of Data into Unsafe Value bug ,Squid may be vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack against HTTP header     parsing. This problem allows a remote client or a remote server to perform Denial of Service when sending     oversized headers in HTTP messages. In versions of Squid prior to 6.5 this can be achieved if the     request_header_max_size or reply_header_max_size settings are unchanged from the default. In Squid version     6.5 and later, the default setting of these parameters is safe. Squid will emit a critical warning in     cache.log if the administrator is setting these parameters to unsafe values. Squid will not at this time     prevent these settings from being changed to unsafe values. Users are advised to upgrade to version 6.5.
    There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability. This issue is also tracked as SQUID-2024:2     (CVE-2024-25617)
