NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream squid-migration-script package and not the squid-migration-script package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

An issue was discovered in Squid before 4.9. When handling a URN request, a corresponding HTTP request is made. This HTTP request doesn't go through the access checks that incoming HTTP requests go through. This causes all access checks to be bypassed and allows access to restricted HTTP servers, e.g., an attacker can connect to HTTP servers that only listen on localhost.
