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 3.x and 4.x through 4.8. It allows attackers to smuggle HTTP requests through frontend software to a Squid instance that splits the HTTP Request pipeline differently. The resulting Response messages corrupt caches (between a client and Squid) with attacker-controlled content at arbitrary URLs. Effects are isolated to software between the attacker client and Squid. There are no effects on Squid itself, nor on any upstream servers. The issue is related to a request header containing whitespace between a header name and a colon.
