Test ID: | 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.54157 |
Category: | SuSE Local Security Checks |
Title: | SuSE Security Advisory SUSE-SA:2002:008 (squid) |
Summary: | NOSUMMARY |
Description: | Description: The remote host is missing updates announced in advisory SUSE-SA:2002:008. The widely used proxy-server squid contains a heap overflow in one of its URL constructing functions. Incorrect length-calculations for the user and passwd fields in ftp-URLs turned out to be the origin of the problem. Only users from hosts listed in squids ACL-files could trigger the overflow. The ftp-URL problem is not present in the 6.4, 7.0 and 7.1 distributions, but other security releated bugs have been fixed there. A complete history can be found at Solution: Update your system with the packages as indicated in the referenced security advisory. http://www.squid-cache.org/Versions/v2/2.4/bugs/ http://www.securityspace.com/smysecure/catid.html?in=SUSE-SA:2002:008 Risk factor : High |
