Test ID:1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.1.1.2.2016.445
Category:Debian Local Security Checks
Title:Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-445-1)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'squid3' package(s) announced via the DLA-445-1 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'squid3' package(s) announced via the DLA-445-1 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
The backported patch to solve CVE-2016-2569 yielded to failed assertions that made squid3 to crash when closing connections. The fix for this CVE strongly relies on exception handling present in more recent versions of squid3, that I failed to identify in the previous update. I have reverted the patch to take the safest position, taking into account that Squeeze users should migrate to a supported version of Debian. This post-EOL update is intended to keep a functional squid3 package in the archive.

Affected Software/OS:
'squid3' package(s) on Debian 6.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
5.0

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