Debian Security Advisory 5637-1
Debian Linux Security Advisory 5637-1 - Several security vulnerabilities have been discovered in Squid, a full featured web proxy cache. Due to programming errors in Squid’s HTTP request parsing, remote attackers may be able to execute a denial of service attack by sending large X-Forwarded-For header or trigger a stack buffer overflow while performing HTTP Digest authentication. Other issues facilitate request smuggling past a firewall or a denial of service against Squid’s Helper process management.

Debian Bug : 1055252 1054537 1055250 1055251 1058721
Several security vulnerabilities have been discovered in Squid, a full featured
web proxy cache. Due to programming errors in Squid’s HTTP request parsing,
remote attackers may be able to execute a denial of service attack by sending
large X-Forwarded-For header or trigger a stack buffer overflow while
performing HTTP Digest authentication. Other issues facilitate request
smuggling past a firewall or a denial of service against Squid’s Helper process
management.
In regard to CVE-2023-46728: Please note that support for the Gopher protocol
has simply been removed in future Squid versions. There are no plans by the
upstream developers of Squid to fix this issue. We recommend to reject all
Gopher URL requests instead.
For the oldstable distribution (bullseye), these problems have been fixed
in version 4.13-10+deb11u3.
For the stable distribution (bookworm), these problems have been fixed in
version 5.7-2+deb12u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your squid packages.
For the detailed security status of squid please refer to
its security tracker page at:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/squid

these updates to your system and frequently asked questions can be

Squid is a caching proxy for the Web. Due to an Uncontrolled Recursion bug in versions 2.6 through 2.7.STABLE9, versions 3.1 through 5.9, and versions 6.0.1 through 6.5, Squid may be vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack against HTTP Request parsing. This problem allows a remote client to perform Denial of Service attack by sending a large X-Forwarded-For header when the follow_x_forwarded_for feature is configured. This bug is fixed by Squid version 6.6. In addition, patches addressing this problem for the stable releases can be found in Squid's patch archives.

Squid is a caching proxy for the Web supporting HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and more. Due to a NULL pointer dereference bug Squid is vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack against Squid's Gopher gateway. The gopher protocol is always available and enabled in Squid prior to Squid 6.0.1. Responses triggering this bug are possible to be received from any gopher server, even those without malicious intent. Gopher support has been removed in Squid version 6.0.1. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade should reject all gopher URL requests.
Squid is vulnerable to Denial of Service, where a remote attacker can perform DoS by sending ftp:// URLs in HTTP Request messages or constructing ftp:// URLs from FTP Native input.

Squid is vulnerable to Denial of Service, where a remote attacker can perform DoS by sending ftp:// URLs in HTTP Request messages or constructing ftp:// URLs from FTP Native input.
Squid is a caching proxy for the Web. Due to an Improper Validation of Specified Index bug, Squid versions 3.3.0.1 through 5.9 and 6.0 prior to 6.4 compiled using `--with-openssl` are vulnerable to a Denial of Service attack against SSL Certificate validation. This problem allows a remote server to perform Denial of Service against Squid Proxy by initiating a TLS Handshake with a specially crafted SSL Certificate in a server certificate chain. This attack is limited to HTTPS and SSL-Bump. This bug is fixed in Squid version 6.4. In addition, patches addressing this problem for the stable releases can be found in Squid's patch archives. Those who you use a prepackaged version of Squid should refer to the package vendor for availability information on updated packages.
