Comment 1 Lewis Smith 2023-11-09 20:43:30 CET
Nicolas has already corrected these CVEs in Cauldron fro Squid 5 (M9):
patches for CVE-2023-4684[6-8] (mga#32486)

These issues are not correctable for Squid 4 (M8). We might have to issue an advisory with the workarounds (or not) as below; + a hint to move to Mageia 9:

SQUID-2023:1 Request/Response smuggling in HTTP/1.1 and ICAP
Squid older than 5.1 have not been tested and should be
assumed to be vulnerable.
All Squid-5.x up to and including 5.9 are vulnerable.
All Squid-6.x up to and including 6.3 are vulnerable.

Workaround:

ICAP issues can be reduced by ensuring only trusted ICAP
services are used, with TLS encrypted connections
(ICAPS extension).

There is no workaround for the HTTP Request Smuggling issue.

SQUID-2023:3 Denial of Service in HTTP Digest Authentication
Squid older than 5.0.5 have not been tested and should be assumed
to be vulnerable.
All Squid-5.0.6 up to and including 5.9 are vulnerable.
All Squid-6.x up to and including 6.3 are vulnerable.

Workaround:

Disable HTTP Digest authentication until Squid can be
upgraded or patched.

Assigning this globally.
