Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.52564
Category:Fedora Local Security Checks
Title:Fedora Core 2 FEDORA-2005-153 (squid)
Summary:NOSUMMARY
Description:Description:

The remote host is missing an update to squid
announced via advisory FEDORA-2005-153.

Squid is a high-performance proxy caching server for Web clients,
supporting FTP, gopher, and HTTP data objects. Unlike traditional
caching software, Squid handles all requests in a single,
non-blocking, I/O-driven process. Squid keeps meta data and especially
hot objects cached in RAM, caches DNS lookups, supports non-blocking
DNS lookups, and implements negative caching of failed requests.

Squid consists of a main server program squid, a Domain Name System
lookup program (dnsserver), a program for retrieving FTP data
(ftpget), and some management and client tools.
