Title:	RedHat Update for squid RHSA-2015:2378-01
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the 'squid'; package(s) announced via the referenced advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the 'squid' package(s) announced via the referenced advisory. Vulnerability Insight: Squid is a high-performance proxy caching server for web clients, supporting FTP, Gopher, and HTTP data objects. It was found that Squid configured with client-first SSL-bump did not correctly validate X.509 server certificate host name fields. A man-in-the-middle attacker could use this flaw to spoof a Squid server using a specially crafted X.509 certificate. (CVE-2015-3455) This update fixes the following bugs: * Previously, the squid process did not handle file descriptors correctly when receiving Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) requests. As a consequence, the process gradually accumulated open file descriptors. This bug has been fixed and squid now handles SNMP requests correctly, closing file descriptors when necessary. (BZ#1198778) * Under high system load, the squid process sometimes terminated unexpectedly with a segmentation fault during reboot. This update provides better memory handling during reboot, thus fixing this bug. (BZ#1225640) Users of squid are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs. After installing this update, the squid service will be restarted automatically. Affected Software/OS: squid on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server (v. 7) Solution: Please Install the Updated Packages. CVSS Score: 2.6 CVSS Vector: AV:N/AC:H/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N
