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.

Squid is a caching proxy for the Web supporting HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and more. Affected versions of squid are subject to a a Use-After-Free bug which can lead to a Denial of Service attack via collapsed forwarding. All versions of Squid from 3.5 up to and including 5.9 configured with "collapsed_forwarding on" are vulnerable. Configurations with "collapsed_forwarding off" or without a "collapsed_forwarding" directive are not vulnerable. This bug is fixed by Squid version 6.0.1. Users are advised to upgrade. Users unable to upgrade should remove all collapsed_forwarding lines from their squid.conf.
Squid is vulnerable to Denial of Service attack against HTTP and HTTPS clients due to an Improper Handling of Structural Elements bug.
