Description
Squid is a caching proxy for the Web supporting HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, and more. Due to an Out-of-bounds Write error when assigning ESI variables, Squid is susceptible to a Memory Corruption error. This error can lead to a Denial of Service attack.
A flaw was found in Squid. An out-of-bounds write can be triggered when an Edge Side Includes (ESI) variable is assigned to a value not in the standard ASCII range, for example, multi-byte characters. This flaw allows a trusted server to crash Squid while processing an ESI response content, resulting in a denial of service.
