Updated squid packages fix security vulnerability

Publication date: 05 May 2020
Modification date: 05 May 2020
Type: security
Affected Mageia releases : 7
CVE: CVE-2020-11945

Description

Updated squid packages fix security vulnerability:

Due to an integer overflow bug Squid is vulnerable to credential replay
and remote code execution attacks against HTTP Digest Authentication tokens.
When memory pooling is used this problem allows a remote client to replay a
sniffed Digest Authentication nonce to gain access to resources that are
otherwise forbidden. When memory pooling is disabled this problem allows a
remote client to perform remote code execution through the free'd nonce
credentials (CVE-2020-11945).
