Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.50594
Category:Mandrake Local Security Checks
Title:Mandrake Security Advisory MDKSA-2004:112 (squid)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to squid
announced via advisory MDKSA-2004:112.

iDEFENSE discovered a Denial of Service vulnerability in squid version
2.5.STABLE6 and previous. The problem is due to an ASN1 parsing error
where certain header length combinations can slip through the
validations performed by the ASN1 parser, leading to the server
assuming there is heap corruption or some other exceptional condition,
and closing all current connections then restarting.

Squid 2.5.STABLE7 has been released to address this issue
the provided
packages are patched to fix the issue.

Affected versions: 10.0, 9.2, Corporate Server 2.1,
Multi Network Firewall 8.2


Solution:
To upgrade automatically use MandrakeUpdate or urpmi. The verification
of md5 checksums and GPG signatures is performed automatically for you.
