HTTP: Squid Oversized Reply Header Handling


A known vulnerability exists in the way the Squid Web proxy/cache parses a overly large HTTP reply header. An oversized HTTP reply header could trigger unexpected behavior on the vulnerable Squid server. This flaw cannot be used to exploit the Squid proxy, however it can be used to attack a proxy client.

Extended Description

A remote unspecified vulnerability reportedly affects Squid Proxy. This issue is due to the application's failure to properly handle malformed HTTP headers. The impact of this issue is currently unknown. This BID will be updated when more information becomes available.
