Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.143765
Category:Web Servers
Title:Squid 3.5.18 - 3.5.28 / 4.0.10 - 4.7 Multiple Vulnerabilities (SQUID-2019:4)
Summary:Squid is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.
Description:Summary:
Squid is prone to multiple vulnerabilities.

Vulnerability Insight:
Due to incorrect URL handling Squid is vulnerable to access
control bypass, cache poisoning and cross-site scripting attacks when processing HTTP Request
messages.

Vulnerability Impact:
A remote client can:

- deliver crafted URLs to bypass cache manager security controls and retrieve confidential details
about the proxy and traffic it is handling.

- deliver crafted URLs which cause arbitrary content from one origin server to be stored in cache
as URLs within another origin. This opens a window of opportunity for clients to be tricked into
fetching and XSS execution of that content via side channels.

Affected Software/OS:
Squid proxy 3.5.18 through 3.5.28 and 4.0.10 through 4.7.

Note: All Squid-4.x up to and including 4.7 without HTTPS support are NOT vulnerable.

Solution:
Update to version 4.8 or later.

CVSS Score:
7.5

CVSS Vector:
AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P
