FEDORA-2004-104

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : squid
Version : 2.5.STABLE3
Release : 1.fc1
Summary : The Squid proxy caching server.
Description :
Squid is a high-performance proxy caching server for Web clients, supporting FTP, gopher, and HTTP data objects. Unlike traditional caching software, Squid handles all requests in a single, non-blocking, I/O-driven process. Squid keeps meta data and especially hot objects cached in RAM, caches DNS lookups, supports non-blocking DNS lookups, and implements negative caching of failed requests.
Squid consists of a main server program squid, a Domain Name System lookup program (dnsserver), a program for retrieving FTP data (ftpget), and some management and client tools.

- Backport security fix for %00 hole. See CAN-2004-0189:
The "%xx" URL decoding function in Squid 2.5STABLE4 and earlier allows
remote attackers to bypass url_regex ACLs via a URL with a NULL
("%00") characterm, which causes Squid to use only a portion of the
requested URL when comparing it against the access control lists.
- Backport security fix that adds urllogin acl type that can be used to
protect vulnerable Microsoft Internet Explorer clients.
