According to the versions of the squid packages installed, the EulerOS installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - An issue was discovered in Squid before 4.12 and 5.x     before 5.0.3. Due to use of a potentially dangerous     function, Squid and the default certificate validation     helper are vulnerable to a Denial of Service when     opening a TLS connection to an attacker-controlled     server for HTTPS. This occurs because unrecognized     error values are mapped to NULL, but later code expects     that each error value is mapped to a valid error     string.(CVE-2020-14058)

  - An issue was discovered in Squid through 4.13 and 5.x     through 5.0.4. Due to improper input validation, it     allows a trusted client to perform HTTP Request     Smuggling and access services otherwise forbidden by     the security controls. This occurs for certain     uri_whitespace configuration settings.(CVE-2020-25097)

  - An issue was discovered in Squid before 4.15 and 5.x     before 5.0.6. Due to an input-validation bug, it is     vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack (against all     clients using the proxy). A client sends an HTTP Range     request to trigger this.(CVE-2021-31808)

  - An issue was discovered in Squid before 4.15 and 5.x     before 5.0.6. Due to a buffer-management bug, it allows     a denial of service. When resolving a request with the     urn: scheme, the parser leaks a small amount of memory.
    However, there is an unspecified attack methodology     that can easily trigger a large amount of memory     consumption.(CVE-2021-28651)

  - An issue was discovered in Squid before 4.15 and 5.x     before 5.0.6. Due to a memory-management bug, it is     vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack (against all     clients using the proxy) via HTTP Range request     processing.(CVE-2021-31806)

  - Squid before 4.15 and 5.x before 5.0.6 allows remote     servers to cause a denial of service (affecting     availability to all clients) via an HTTP response. The     issue trigger is a header that can be expected to exist     in HTTP traffic without any malicious intent by the     server.(CVE-2021-33620)

  - An issue was discovered in Squid before 4.15 and 5.x     before 5.0.6. An integer overflow problem allows a     remote server to achieve Denial of Service when     delivering responses to HTTP Range requests. The issue     trigger is a header that can be expected to exist in     HTTP traffic without any malicious     intent.(CVE-2021-31807)

The version of squid installed on the remote host is prior to 3.5.20-17. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2023-1950 advisory.

    An issue was discovered in Squid before 4.15 and 5.x before 5.0.6. Due to a buffer-management bug, it     allows a denial of service.

However, there is an unspecified attack methodology that can easily trigger a large amount of     memory consumption. (CVE-2021-28651)

    An issue was discovered in Squid before 4.15 and 5.x before 5.0.6. Due to incorrect parser validation, it     allows a Denial of Service attack against the Cache Manager API. This allows a trusted client to trigger     memory leaks that. over time, lead to a Denial of Service via an unspecified short query string. This     attack is limited to clients with Cache Manager API access privilege. (CVE-2021-28652)

    An issue was discovered in Squid before 4.15 and 5.x before 5.0.6. Due to a memory-management bug, it is     vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack (against all clients using the proxy) via HTTP Range request     processing. (CVE-2021-31806)

    A flaw was found in squid. A trusted client can directly access the cache manager information, bypassing     the manager ACL protection and resulting in information disclosure. (CVE-2022-41317)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

This update for squid fixes the following issues :

update to 4.15 :

CVE-2021-28652: Broken cache manager URL parsing (bsc#1185918)

CVE-2021-28651: Memory leak in RFC 2169 response parsing (bsc#1185921)

CVE-2021-28662: Limit HeaderLookupTable_t::lookup() to BadHdr and specific IDs (bsc#1185919)

CVE-2021-31806: Handle more Range requests (bsc#1185916)

CVE-2020-25097: HTTP Request Smuggling vulnerability (bsc#1183436)

Handle more partial responses (bsc#1185923)

fix previous change to reinstante permissions macros, because the wrong path has been used (bsc#1171569).

use libexecdir instead of libdir to conform to recent changes in Factory (bsc#1171164).

Reinstate permissions macros for pinger binary, because the permissions package is also responsible for setting up the cap_net_raw capability, currently a fresh squid install doesn't get a capability bit at all (bsc#1171569).

Change pinger and basic_pam_auth helper to use standard permissions.
pinger uses cap_net_raw=ep instead (bsc#1171569)

    CVE-2021-28116:
    Squid through 4.14 and 5.x through 5.0.5, in some configurations, allows information disclosure because of     an out-of-bounds read in WCCP protocol data. This can be leveraged as part of a chain for remote code     execution as nobody.
