Gibraltar Firewall 2.2 and earlier, when using the ClamAV update to 0.81 for Squid, uses a defunct ClamAV method to scan memory for viruses, which does not return an error code and prevents viruses from being detected.
Squid 2.5 STABLE9 and earlier, when the DNS client port is unfiltered and the environment does not prevent IP spoofing, allows remote attackers to spoof DNS lookups.
squid_ldap_auth in Squid 2.5 and earlier allows remote authenticated users to bypass username-based Access Control Lists (ACLs) via a username with a space at the beginning or end, which is ignored by the LDAP server.
Squid 2.5, when processing the configuration file, parses empty Access Control Lists (ACLs), including proxy_auth ACLs without defined auth schemes, in a way that effectively removes arguments, which could allow remote attackers to bypass intended ACLs if the administrator ignores the parser warnings.
The httpProcessReplyHeader function in http.c for Squid 2.5-STABLE7 and earlier does not properly set the debug context when it is handling "oversized" HTTP reply headers, which might allow remote attackers to poison the cache or bypass access controls based on header size.
Squid 2.5.STABLE8 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (crash) via certain DNS responses regarding (1) Fully Qualified Domain Names (FQDN) in fqdncache.c or (2) IP addresses in ipcache.c, which trigger an assertion failure.
Squid 2.5.STABLE9 and earlier does not trigger a fatal error when it identifies missing or invalid ACLs in the http_access configuration, which could lead to less restrictive ACLs than intended by the administrator.
Squid 2.5.STABLE7 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (segmentation fault) by aborting the connection during a (1) PUT or (2) POST request, which causes Squid to access previously freed memory.
Race condition in Squid 2.5.STABLE7 to 2.5.STABLE9, when using the Netscape Set-Cookie recommendations for handling cookies in caches, may cause Set-Cookie headers to be sent to other users, which allows attackers to steal the related cookies.
Squid 2.5 up to 2.5.STABLE7 allows remote attackers to poison the cache or conduct certain attacks via headers that do not follow the HTTP specification, including (1) multiple Content-Length headers, (2) carriage return (CR) characters that are not part of a CRLF pair, and (3) header names containing whitespace characters.
