Package : squid
Vulnerability : mising input sanitising
Problem-Type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE ID : CAN-2005-0446

Upstream developers have discovered several problems in squid, the Internet object cache, the popular WWW proxy cache. A remote attacker can cause squid to crash via certain DNS responses.

For the stable distribution (woody) these problems have been fixed in version 2.4.6-2woody7.

We recommend that you upgrade your squid package.
