Descriptions

The Squid Software Foundation Squid HTTP Caching Proxy version 3.0 to 3.5.27, 4.0 to 4.0.22 contains a Incorrect Pointer Handling vulnerability in ESI Response Processing that can result in Denial of Service for all clients using the proxy.. This attack appear to be exploitable via Remote server delivers an HTTP response payload containing valid but unusual ESI syntax.. This vulnerability appears to have been fixed in 4.0.23 and later.

Squid Software Foundation Squid HTTP Caching Proxy, en versiones 3.0 a 3.5.27 y 4.0 a 4.0.22 contiene una vulnerabilidad de manipulación de punteros incorrecta en el procesamiento de respuestas ESI. Esto puede resultar en una denegación de servicio (DoS) para todos los clientes que empleen el proxy. Parece que el ataque puede ser explotado mediante servidores remotos que envían una carga útil de respuesta HTTP que contiene una sintaxis válida pero inusual de ESI. Parece ser que la vulnerabilidad se ha solucionado en la versión 4.0.23 y siguientes.
