Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'squid' package(s) announced via the MGASA-2016-0171 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
Due to incorrect data validation of intercepted HTTP Request messages
Squid is vulnerable to clients bypassing the protection against
CVE-2009-0801 related issues. This leads to cache poisoning. This

and poison the proxy cache and any downstream caches with content from
an arbitrary source (CVE-2016-4553).

smuggling attack leading to cache poisoning and to bypass of same-origin
security policy in Squid and some client browsers (CVE-2016-4554).

Affected Software/OS:
'squid' package(s) on Mageia 5.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).
