Description

Due to incorrect buffer management Squid is vulnerable to a
heap buffer overflow and possible remote code execution attack
when processing URN.
Severity:

This problem allows a remote server to perform a Buffer Overflow
attack when delivering URN Trivial-HTTP responses. Potentially
allowing delivery of up to 4KB of Squid allocated heap memory
to the client.

Revealed memory may include security credentials or other
confidential data.
Updated Packages:
This bug is fixed by Squid version 6.4.

In addition, patches addressing this problem for the stable
releases can be found in our patch archives:

If you are using a prepackaged version of Squid then please refer
to the package vendor for availability information on updated
packages.
Determining if your version is vulnerable:

Squid older than 4.14 have not been tested and should be assumed
to be vulnerable.

All Squid-4.x up to and including 4.17 are 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:

Disable URN access permissions.

acl URN proto URN
http_access deny URN
