EulerOS 2.0 SP8 : squid (EulerOS-SA-2020-2159)

high Nessus Plugin ID 141007

Synopsis

The remote EulerOS host is missing a security update.

Description

According to the version of the squid package installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerability :

 - Squid before 4.13 and 5.x before 5.0.4 allows a trusted peer to perform Denial of Service by consuming all available CPU cycles during handling of a crafted Cache Digest response message. This only occurs when cache_peer is used with the cache digests feature. The problem exists because peerDigestHandleReply() livelocking in peer_digest.cc mishandles EOF.(CVE-2020-24606)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Update the affected squid package.
