Subject: UnixWare 7.1.4 : squid updated package fixes several security issues
Advisory number: SCOSA-2005.16
Issue date: 2005 February 11
Cross reference: sr890343 fz529457 erg712610 sr892199 fz530514 erg712740 CAN-2004-0189 CAN-2004-0918
______________________________________________________________________________
1. Problem Description
The asn_parse_header function (asn1.c) in the SNMP module
for Squid Web Proxy Cache before 2.4.STABLE7 allows remote
attackers to cause a denial of service (server restart) via
certain SNMP packets with negative length fields that causes
a memory allocation error.
The "%xx" URL decoding function in Squid 2.5STABLE4 and earlier
allows remote attackers to bypass url_regex ACLs via a URL with
a NULL ("%00") character, which causes Squid to use only a
portion of the requested URL when comparing it against the
access control lists.
The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project (cve.mitre.org)
has assigned the name CAN-2004-0189 and CAN-2004-0918 to this issues.
