CWE-119  (opens in a new tab)

How to fix?

Upgrade Debian:13 squid to version 2.5.7-6 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream squid package and not the squid package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:13 relevant fixed versions and status.

Buffer overflow in wccp.c in Squid 2.5 before 2.5.STABLE7 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via a long WCCP packet, which is processed by a recvfrom function call that uses an incorrect length parameter.
