Updated squid packages fix security vulnerabilities :

Due to incorrect state management, Squid before 3.3.12 is vulnerable to a denial of service attack when processing certain HTTPS requests if the SSL-Bump feature is enabled (CVE-2014-0128).

Matthew Daley discovered that Squid 3 did not properly perform input validation in request parsing. A remote attacker could send crafted Range requests to cause a denial of service (CVE-2014-3609).

Due to incorrect buffer management Squid can be caused by an attacker to write outside its allocated SNMP buffer (CVE-2014-6270).

Due to incorrect bounds checking Squid pinger binary is vulnerable to denial of service or information leak attack when processing larger than normal ICMP or ICMPv6 packets (CVE-2014-7141).

Due to incorrect input validation Squid pinger binary is vulnerable to denial of service or information leak attacks when processing ICMP or ICMPv6 packets (CVE-2014-7142).

The squid-cache project reports :

Due to incorrect buffer management Squid can be caused by an attacker to write outside its allocated SNMP buffer.

This updated fixes CVE-2014-6270.

According to its banner, the version of Squid running on the remote host is 3.x prior to 3.4.8. Therefore, it may be affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A off-by-one overflow flaw exists within the SNMP     processing component. By using a specially crafted     UDP SNMP request, a remote attacker could exploit this     to cause a denial of service or possibly execute     arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-6270)

  - There exists an array indexing flaw in the node pinger     that is triggered when parsing ICMP and ICMPv6 replies,     which may allow a remote attacker to crash the pinger or     obtain sensitive information. (CVE-2014-7141)

  - The node pinger has a flaw in function 'Icmp4::Recv' in     file 'icmp/Icmp4.cc.' that is triggered when parsing     ICMP or ICMPv6 responses. A remote attacker could     exploit this to crash the pinger or obtain sensitive     information. (CVE-2014-7142)

Note that Nessus has relied only on the version in the proxy server's banner. The patch released to address the issue does not update the version in the banner. If the patch has been applied properly, and the service has been restarted, consider this to be a false positive.

Sebastian Krahmer discovered that Squid incorrectly handled certain SNMP requests. If SNMP is enabled, a remote attacker could use this issue to cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2014-6270)

Alex Rousskov discovered that Squid incorrectly handled certain malformed responses. A remote attacker could possibly use this issue to cause Squid to crash, resulting in a denial of service.
(CVE-2016-2571).
