Description
Squid Team reports: Problem Description: Due to incorrect data management Squid is vulnerable to a information disclosure when processing HTTP Digest Authentication. Severity: Nonce tokens contain the raw byte value of a pointer which sits within heap memory allocation. This information reduces ASLR protections and may aid attackers isolating memory areas to target for remote code execution attacks.
