Description David Walser 2016-04-04 22:49:15 CEST
Upstream has issued advisories on April 2:
http://www.squid-cache.org/Advisories/SQUID-2016_3.txt
http://www.squid-cache.org/Advisories/SQUID-2016_4.txt

Updated packages uploaded for Mageia 5 and Cauldron.

Advisory:
========================

Updated squid packages fix security vulnerabilities:

Due to a buffer overrun, the Squid pinger binary in Squid before 3.5.16 is
vulnerable to a denial of service or information leak attack when processing
ICMPv6 packets. This bug also permits the server response to manipulate other
ICMP and ICMPv6 queries processing to cause information leaks (CVE-2016-3947).

Due to incorrect bounds checking, Squid before 3.5.16 is vulnerable to a
denial of service attack when processing HTTP responses (CVE-2016-3948).
